Your being an idiot isn't relevant to this thread.
Good photographs are nice, somebody who has put a lot of work and time (even if not money) into a build has a right to record the result as pleasingly as possible when it's fresh off the work stand, and before they go and thrash the hell out of it on whatever roads or trails they made it for.
Learn to live in peace with fashionistas co-opting something which is just a part of your day to day life, they do it to everything and it doesn't help you to be a snob about it. Bikes and riding will still be just as much fun after they've moved on to the next trend as they were before.
