My bad. But the point stands. Complaining about a cultural movement that they have almost entirely gentrified is massively ironic.
And in that complaint I don't see any irony.
Techno came from an already gentrified African-American community in Detroit, the Belleville Three [0] were from a more affluent part of Detroit at the time, inspired by the 70s/80s German and Japanese electronic music scene, it was never like the roots of hip-hop...
Nobody in Detroit has ever called Belleville affluent (or 'more affluent' or whatever), and I go back to those days. I will politely omit the lol because you (obviously) aren't from around here.
Techno was indeed the music from middle-class African-Americans. It's too bad the world demanded that young Black male artists must act like the white world expected - like gangsters - to sell hip-hop records.
Lol. Lmao. Belleville is Juggalo country, cuz. Ypsituckians working in auto parts factories.

(Could that be a subtle reference? Was the director or writer a techno fan?)
