Punk ideologies are a group of varied social and political beliefs associated with the punk subculture. In its original incarnation, the punk subculture originated out of working class angst and the frustrations many were feeling about economic issues and the bourgeois hypocrisy and neglect of working people and their struggles to survive. It was primarily concerned with concepts such as pro working-class, anti-establishment, equality, freedom, anti-authoritarianism, anti-corporate culture/corruption, anti-war, free-thought and non-conformity being one of its main tenets: An absolute rejection of mainstream crass culture and its values. It continued to evolve its ideology as the movement spread throughout North America from its origins in England and New York and embrace anti-racist and anti-sexist belief systems but not all punks got the message and some were guilty of being racist and sexist despite the movement striving for the opposite.
