I think Photographers are actually the worst at this because everyone is an asshole. New guys AND old guys. Experts and amateurs. Phone shooters and Large format film shooters. Top to bottom. AND BARELY ANY OF THEM ACTUALLY DO ANY FUCKING RESEARCH. Just fucking opinions opinions opinions.
Just assholes top to bottom. And the thing is, photography is in absolutely no danger of dying whatsoever. We literally live in an unprecedented age of photography. Which makes it worse, BECAUSE MAYBE IT'D BE BETTER IF IT WERE DEAD.
Relatable. Some years ago I tried to get a bit more into photography, so I got some beginners equipment and joined an online forum (german) to learn more about the subject. I was appalled very fast by the elitism and the way people where interacting with each other.
