Other Why the animosity towards BJJ?

I'm just wondering why I often see Judo people ragging on BJJ people. I see this a lot when a BJJ guy posts a video demonstrating a Judo throw. In the comments there will usually be a bunch of angry Judo people saying things like "BJJ = basically just Judo", and things like that.

I have been noticing this for years, but why?

I think both arts are awesome, and it would be great if we could just combine them into one big, beautiful art!

He's a another Judo nerd who hates on BJJ. Majority of them probably just do kata and randori looking scared like Chadi on YouTube lol
