i'm convinced the huge backlash against selfie sticks back in like the mid-2010's was just tall poppy syndrome

@vantablack people walked around with them in public and they were constantly in the way lol

@vantablack sure in most places they weren't a problem but in tourist-y places they were an annoyance

@vantablack plus ppl who take a lot of selfies already didn't have the best reputation
