Ellie sits down with three of the most engaged people in the current DIY scene to talk about the past, present, and future of political engagement and activism in the world of emo and screamo. Topics discussed include 90s hardcore, veganism, PC backlash, “cancel culture,” irony-poisoning, casual racism, and staying above the toxicity of internet discourse. Ellie isn’t the world’s best editor or sound engineer, so the audio during Megan’s interview is a little fucky, but bear with us and we think you’ll have a great time.
