The copypasta makes a good point but is just over the top about it. However what they call emo I've always called "emocore" which is, of course, the source of the word. Emocore as a word was invented when the DC scene began differing the sounds of Minor Threat and Rites of Spring, the former being "hardcore". I sometimes joke that the word was so detested by Ian MacKaye that he and Guy Picciotto, Joe Lally and Brendan Canty started an entirely new genre via Fugazi in protest.

The interesting thing about the copypasta is that none of the bands listed as real Emocore I don't think ever willingly identified as that genre. Whereas all of the other bands listed may have on some level agreed that their music is more or less in the "emo" genre. In way, it's saying that you're only real emo if that was not your intent.

As it relates to the Cyber Truck, however, is interesting. I think it's fair to say that the approach to construction of the Cyber Truck is relatively in line with the Brutalist movement: exposed materials in bare form with rigid and simple geometric designs. But the Cyber Truck was not created by any of the original Brutalist Architects, nor was it done in that era. And even though the location may be somewhat right, in that the Bay Area (where Tesla is HQ'd) is full of Brutalist Architecture, if the author of the copypasta had written about this subject instead, the cyber truck would have undoubtedly been mentioned in the ALL CAPS SECTION at the end.
