Right - usually. But I’ve heard people use it in a questioning or disapproving way. Tone conveys a lot.

Yeah it’s a full generalization of “$NOUN-type shit” being a declaration that something that gives an impression of being characteristic of $NOUN in some way.
The gen z ascendant version is “what does it mean to omit the $NOUN entirely?” and makes it a bit more of an existential exclamation, like “that’s some real shit” or just “real shit”.
It is mostly equivalent to "That's what's up."
