to claim punk is to claim to be a part of the punk lifestyle because of x, y, x reasons

x, y, and z tend to be justifications based on style or external perception of their person, rather than their upholding the values of a punk lifestyle in action and solidarity (the values of punk being free-speech, self-expression, rebellion against oppressive and exclusive social systems)
"So you saw him purposefully ignore an act of injustice being committed against someone of a systemically oppressed identity?"

"Yeah, but then he showed me his r/joydivison posts, so he can claim punk."

"Didn't he argue in favor of hate speech based on the free market of ideas theory? He told me he thought every idea needed to be discussed and given space for discussion."
"Well, he's wrong about that. But, when he isn't arguing for arguments' sake, he plays in a sick band."
"Oh right, that pit was insane. He claims punk for sure."

i think this word can best be discribed with a little story

a man i sitting at a bar, drinking beers. when suddenly two men start fighting. the man had no intention of interfering whatsover. he just didnt have the (balls) energy today. he soon realise that he is out of cash, which means that he can no longer buy the beers to drink. but then right at the corner of his eye he spots a wallet laying there, on the bar. it was owned by one of the two men fighting. the man would never steal, he knew that. so the man gets up and leaves. but as he is leaving he spots a drunk at the parking lot, uncontius. next to his truck. "i couldnt" he thought to himself and went home, but at his way home he gets into heated arguement with a stranger, claming that he was a twat. so what did the man do? he fucked his wife and illegaly claimed his mothers ashes. the end
