Outdoor enthusiast groups seem to be some of the worst for this these days. I'm guessing because the gear is expensive and fashionable now, as well as a lot of white collar tech people flocking to it as an aspirational lifestyle thing.
I love camping and backpacking, I hate the elitist trust fund granola types so much. Backpacking/hiking gear is getting fashionable, so I can only afford used/REI garage sale gear, I hate it so much
I hate it, but thankfully a lot of the expensive outdoor gear is not really needed and is basically branding/snake oil/ultralight stuff that the majority of hikers don't need. I'll keep backpacking for dirt cheap with my surplus DDR rucksack thank you very much!
