Whenever I see people referring to “influencers” in a sort of looking down, derogatory way, I think they are probably affected by inferiority complex and have self esteem issues. They are projecting their insecurities onto a person who they deem to be more influential - not because they literally have wider reach, but because they see themselves as incapable of achieving the same. Likely also being influenced by social proof, prestige bias and authority bias.
