It was buried under things like nu-metal and emo in the late 90s (I’m fuzzy on this because of reasons).

there was stuff like the offspring and green day , them sum41 as a death throe.

Green day, offspring, and sum41 are all very solidly in the pop/punk genre, debatably leaning more pop...

Yes they are. I count it as pop punk.

Totally punk, you know what isn't? being an elitist about a music genres, specially punk

Idk if that's elitism. It's more calling a spade a spade. Punk at its core is about recapturing the simplicity and energy of early pre-british invasion rock. That doesn't really lend itself to ballads and concept albums. It's not about denigrating green day so much as finding a definition that fits them better.
