When I was in high school, the worry was finding a cool punk band and discovering they were skinheads.
"skinhead" isnt as settled a term as it may appear. Nazi fucks gave punk a bad name by getting associated with them.

Some reading for those unfamiliar.
Theres a good documentary i cant find explaining the history of skinheads. If i find it ill post it too
I'm active in the punk scene and I know a lot of skinheads and they're all hardcore antifascists.
In the US "skinhead" has a different meaning besides just being bald and aggressive. It's what neo-nazis are referred to as because they co-opted that whole punk look.
