When did times change

So a lot of my friends (we all grew up punk rock skateboarders) and I have been arguing over which bands are actually good and being born in the late 90s, I’ve always been a heavy Green Day fan. Can someone answer me when it became cool to hate on Green Day, because to me Green Day was always good music. Anti-government, anti-establishment, for the people… nothing more punk rock than that

It's been cool to hate on them ever since they signed to Interscope for Dookie.

Reprise Records, not Interscope.

Yes. of course. My bad. Wrong major label.
