Someone who doesn't consider the nuances of emo music as a genre, and always try to shut down the conversation about what bands are considered part of the genre or not. They always refer bands like American Football, The Promise Ring, The Get Up Kids, and other midwest emo bands as "true emo", and anything mainstream like My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, and Paramore as "fake emo".
They also like using the excuse "Gerard Way hates MCR being called emo" and completely ignoring that Rites of Spring and Jawbreaker also hated being called emo, but they proceed to insist their emo title anyways. It's the same thing that happened with Grunge and Nu Metal before where people used the excuse that bands hated labels, thus they aren't part of it.
Their primary source for this information comes from isthisbandemo.com which 1. Is an extremely contradictory website (stating bands like Senses Fail and Pierce the Veil aren't emo, but bands similar to them like Silverstein and Coheed and Cambria are) 2. They change emo rulings all the time (they used to consider The Used emo, but not anymore, or when they used to not consider Paramore emo, but now they do, etc.) and 3. The website owner came out and said that it shouldn't even be taken seriously back in 2019.
Obviously, there are some bands that aren't emo that people can clear the waters about like Panic! at the Disco or Twenty One Pilots, but to gatekeep what is "real and fake emo" is ridiculous.

Emo Gatekeeper Copypasta: "Real Emo" only consists of the dc Emotional Hardcore scene and the late 90's Screamo scene...

Get the Emo Gatekeeper mug.A Dahoodian Emo is a sub-category style in Da Hood, usually wearing dark clothes and have messy hair, like a birds nest made from sticks. They also mainly have headless and korblox, but will mainly use headless so you cannot get a headshot. They use Revolver and Double Barrel, rarely using (Tactical) Shotgun. They have many enemies across the platform, but their main enemies are Newbies and Barbies. About 94.33% of Emos are male, and range from the ages 11-17. The rest of them are Females who range from the ages 10-16, as it is very rare to find one older than 18. They use insuls such as " ez ", "so bad", "son", and "L". They are easy to find in public server, very common to find. They are extremely toxic, and have a decent amount of skill. They random people off the bat if they want to, so they're pretty aggressive. They most likely are sweaty kids who have no life or just human beings that are bored.
