Your young,all you want is to be free. But how can you when you live in a society that forces you to grow into a preset pattern. Everyone tells you what to do. So what do you do? exactly, the opposite. You think that is freedom, while actually your are walking another preset path, a path unwillingly, knowingly forced upon yourself, cause you think that is what you desire most, freedom. Freedom to walk talk and act like you want, the freedom to do or not do what you desire.
As for Stevo, He lived the life. He felt unique as 1 of the 2 'true' SLC punks. while actually the only 'true' punk according to Stevo's way of thinking would be Bob, but no bob fell in love and thus selling out. As Fall passed, Stevo began to question his believes more and more. It was full of hipocracy, hipocracy he as a punk is against (the chain of fighting clans > politics > war > fighting clans etc). He loved sandy, but he wasn't allowed to, he denied it. since love > marriage > job > being a part of established society > everything he was against.
That redheads sisters, tells him of the structure of life. that nature itself is structured too, structure is everywhere around us. he then finds brandy screwing that kid, he snaps, if that isn't love.
The night before bob dies, he tells Stevo he wants to marry Trish, Stevo laughs about it at first. But that nights blind date with Brandy, and the dead of his best friend. gave him a wake-up call. He thought he was free, but his elitist attitude refused him the little things (only posers fall in love). And he realized his lifestyle can't create anarchy, how can you when all you do is party, and let the world revolve around you (sandy nailed that when she showed him something beautiful).
what he said at the end: Its much easier fighting the system from the inside (or something close to that)
