I'd say that it's rather the attitude of
"I watched sooo much anime I know everything about Japan, maaaan!" kiddies towards those who actually live here and work double time to be part of Japanese society.
If one refuses to respect other's experience on the matter, he should not expect respect for his own trivia information about bits and pieces of the exact same thing. It would fight against common sense.
There is and should not be equality in experience, knowledge and skills among people, not real nor imagined one.
