Green Day is pop. Don't hate them, but I'm not going to ever own any of their albums.

Really that list only superficially scratches the surface of "punk". In its roughly 30 year history punk has become probably the most diverse and complicated sub-genre of rock(if not music period). From those earliest examples of proto punk have spread some drastically divergent branches, creating sub-genres within sub-genres within sub-genres. But there almost always remains a certain continuity in style, influence, history, and fan base allowing all these bands to own some rights to the 'punk' label.

I simply can't take seriously the musical opinions of anybody that outright dismisses punk as a whole. That sort of attitude can only come out of pure ignorance of a huge chunk of rock music of the past few decades.
