Gamer elitists, why do these people dump on other genres and their fans, like shooters or kinect titles? Where does it come from? What do they gain?

Shooters get bashed by those people who mostly play jrpg:s/platformers and such. They don't like a game which they have to compete against real people, since it reminds them of their childhood. Oh those nasty schoolyard games.
