Controversial opinions on metal

I was actually serious about the Nu Metal comment. Although I find the term to be a bit broad, describing a period of music rather than an actual type. (similar to grunge). I like System of a Down, I like Godsmack, I like KoRn, and I like all 5 songs Disturbed continues to re-release every few years.

I really don't understand the animosity towards it.

whether or not you like it is irrelevant, according to this board it's gay and non metal. case fucking closed
 
it's fucking rap or whatever.
Since when? There are some bands that added rap elements to their music, but only a few songs of all the Nu Metal bands I've listened to could even be considered rap, and those would be fusion genres, still applicable to metal.
