3- the new "pop-punk" wave ...like Good Charlotte, Simple Plan, Something Corporate etc... which I wouldn't even call punk, and can't stand....

But it's all a matter of taste....
The thing with the "Pop-Punk" bands .. is that they grew up listening to the punk rock you like, and the pop of their generation and has come up with something totally their own. Which if you are not really open minded to commercialized music, you might not enjoy so much.

Can't we just be happy this kind of music exists? I mean at least some kid some where is listening to Good Charlotte and might decide they want to hear the bands that influenced them.

Its all good .. really
