Many golden age pirates were actually kind of like that

Big multiethnic crews. Lots of gayness, transgressive gender identities, liberatory politics. It was extremely punk, but with very very slightly better music and substantially worse booze.

Any fun historical sources you can recommend?

Graeber really gets unto the mess of it all in 'pirate enlightenment: the real libertalia'

If you want something much less complicated and academic, i think the podcast 'cool people who did cool stuff' has a few episodes on it.

Theres some more crunchy stuff i remember but i can't think of where i read it, sorry. The academic stuff all kind of blurs. Except for a few who could serioudly wrote like Graeber and Foucault.
