It's true that I know little about the " skinhead " culture which after reading your links seems to be pretty diverse. I think my use was accurate enough to get my point across and all I'm guilty of is not narrowing it down with a more specific prefix  |
Correct, I was responding to this: " She meets a guy who is hardcore racist almost to the skinhead level "
The fact is most skins are not racist, but the WP Skins (boneheads) always get the media attention and fit the stereotype. I had black skinhead friends in highschool. The term "almost to skinhead level" is what caused me to try to educate you. Skinheads are usually not racist, the WP ones and nationalists in general are though.
Most skinheads are not racist. Thats simply a fact. Many Oi!/skin bands sing against racism.
