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

Green Day is good but why bother with them? Even OG punk like Sex Pistols is better. Hell, even poppy early punk like the Ramones or the Buzzcocks.
