1. Are you a writer
2. Do you dislike any cliques in particular? For me it has to be the male non-writer dudebro.

I'm a writer and a poet and I hate all the shitty free verse Instagram poets. I think good free verse is possible; I love Wallace Stevens, for example. But the proliferation of free verse has had an extreme negative effect on poetry as a whole, with Instagram poets as the ultimate example of this.
