The fact that he admitted it doesn't change the fact that it was completely uninspired songwriting.

Did you completely miss what I just said? An opinion can't be wrong. I agreed that saying The Sex Pistols were more skillfull than Rush would wrong, but saying you prefer them isn't. "I like the Sex Pistols more than Rush," and "The Sex Pistols are a better band than Rush," are two different things.

We can either go by elitist drivel, majority rules bolshevism, or the natural down to earth opinion's of the average person. If everyone accepts emo to be pop-punk, and two critics say emo is something else entirely, by so many people having consensus as to what emo is then it would be pop-punk by perception.
