Only I actually like classical music. Classical music calms me down, but I agree with pb, I don't know of a classical song that actually has a meaning behind it, I think classical songs were more made for the purpose of being beautiful, not making you think.
I think that a group called Modestep's a mix between normal music and electronic music (sort of breaks the tension between non-dubstep fans and dubstep fans) :

and dubstep/brostep/whateveryoucallitstep is designed to pump you up, get your adrenaline pumping and inspire feelings of energy, life. Just because it's some genre that's changed doesn't make it any less worth noting. Just because it has no lyrics does not make it completely meaningless. I bet there are a few people out there that have certain dubstep songs that have played in their memorable events of life. Be it on purpose or not, that song gains meaning to them. It changes for everyone.
It may not be nearly as intricate, complex or hard to make as classical music, rock, metal etc., but that does not make it less worthy of noting. People who do that are shallow and missing the point. Some of the most famous songs are painfully simple, even by metal or rock artists. Polly by Nirvana has something like 8 drum beats in the whole song, yet it's a great song. Complexity is generally what nearly everyone gets butthurt about with dubstep, that "anyone can get FL Studio and make dubstep". While that may be true to an extent, you still have to learn the software, some sort of musical appreciation of scales, tones, notiation, timbre and such. Just like when you learn guitar you have to learn all of that, you just apply it to guitar instead of a software program.
Nobody has any right to say what music anybody likes is poo poo if they like it. If they like it, so be it, just don't shove your music down their throats and expect them to just sit there and like it.

Ok, I never belittled anyone for listening to dubstep, and I sure as hell didn't try to "shove my music down their throat"
