 Part of that is because they see amateurs producing material that is viewed by the public as about as good as things they slaved to produce with all their hard won years of learning to master their tools.

Actually a big part of the problems is because a lot of amaterus think their stuff looks as good, but it doesn't, and lot of amateurs lack the skill to even see the difference, just get all ticked off when they get criticized.
