So is "emo" an insult?
Not really. They are more "pop punk" than emo. Blink 182 would be closest to emo, but they aren't really.

Emo has turned INTO an insult I guess. Nobody wants to be known as emo anymore.

Okay, so what's alternative? Is it just modern rock? Like Blink and Green Day?

Alternative is a term used by record companies to dress up the same mainstream rock as something "edgy" and different. Alternative is, essentially, mainstream rock, and people will argue back and forther over who's alternative and isn't because there's no real defining trait, nor has there been since like 1986.

People not wanting to be known as emo isn't a bad thing. It's about as legit a genre as nu-metal, considering half the nerds who are "emo" can't even agree. Throw a bunch of acts together under one genre, and market it to dumb kids.

...Much like alternative, come to think of it.
