Punk is a slang term used in prison to describe homosexuals. Typically in prison you wouldn't say "That guy over in 5 cell is gay" you'd say "The guy in 5 cell is a punk".
Usually during intake CO's will ask you questions about gang affiliation, sexual identity, suicidal thoughts etc and separate you in to tanks, pods, or dorms where they think there will be the fewest incidents because of your status. As a result they will put homosexual people together and the dorms they're housed in are called "punk tanks"

Punk Rock is essentially any fast rock band that is made by someone who wants to form their own band to make what they want without being controlled by record companies, most of these hate authority but sometimes a punk band may even have nothing to do with politics at all.
Once they sign to record companies that means they become rockstars or they "Sellout" and aren't considered a punk band anymore.
Even if the subculture isn't big punk rock will always exist so long as you got Guitar, Bass and Drums.

Calimero punk or Cali-punk is a fake subgenre of the Devo inspired genre of punk rock called "egg punk" mixed with the references and attitude of the Italian cartoon series "Calimero", whom the titular character wears an eggshell for a hat. Hence the name of the genre.

A subculture emerging in the mid 1970's formed around the music of punk rock. Typically associated with DIY fashion, anarchy, and vulgar in-your-face attitudes; the definition of punk is better categorized as a form of shameless self expression and an ideology of doing what one desires regardless of social norms while still treating those around you with kindness and respect.
