How many people unfamiliar with hardcore would ever think it's primarily played by SJW types, sometimes involves people crying on stage and is aesthetically the complete antithesis of shock rock?

Also sample lyric from what's commonly considered the best song by one of the most influential hardcore bands of all time:

I would say much of "Rhythm & Blues" but the issue there is really the idea that it constitutes a single genre.

Aren't, like, all hardcore lyrics merely stylized, unintelligible screaming?  What does it matter if they nominally read like the sort of sh*t we all wrote when we were young and stupid in ninth grade*?  You can't make any of it out anyway.

*No offense meant to our younger members who might still be going through those hard times, of course.

Also, the most misnamed genre is clearly ars nova.

"New art" my posterior, you're from the fourteenth century!  That's old, dammit.  Like, older than Classical.  Older than Bach.  Old old.

Yes. Those lyrics honestly sound like something 20RP12 would write when Ron Paul lost the primary in 2012.

Ummm, this is the song in question: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ge8ucvLYLRc
And an example of modern hardcore: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jutbr7gwtZQ

Quite intelligible.

It's basically an offshoot that tended to go down some uber-artsy routes.

No, that would be Indian music they sell in the subway.  They're not Indians, they're Native Americans.
