Tracer your view of punk is a bit too "there's no such word as can't" for me. Or "Feel The Fear And Do It Anyway"!
I'm reminded of the Venn Diagram Mark S reprints in his 'Concrete' essay - here are the punks and here are the non-punks and here are the people who don't fit into either. The reading is that those people are sympathetic but I think they can be sympathetic and also frightened and miserable and disappointed.
