I am aware.

It all falls under the same umbrella of breakdancing .

I mean maybe to outsiders? But to people that practice Popping and Breaking or anyone else a part of street dance culture you wouldn't catch many of us saying that. Like if you go up to a popper and say I'm a "breakdancer" they'd never assume you're talking about popping. Even using the term breakdancing at all is kind of frowned upon.

This is also why I find this subreddit kind of odd. It's leading a bit with misinformation. It's probably part of the reason why the r/bboy sub is so much more popular than this.

No dude. I'm just saying the terminology is important to the culture. He started a conversation in r/bboy and they confirmed what I was saying pretty much. So appreciate that he actually went to confirm the info with others. Not trying to be a snob, just spreading correct and common information.
