Insult away, most people here can see through that.
There are degrees of competency, of which I'm sure your aware.
Everybody and their brother that dabbles with a PC is a computer expert.
How competent does one need to be to take a photograph?
Assuming the prerequisites of a camera, a recording medium, and a power
supply if it's an electronic device, one must:
1. Know to look through the viewfinder (unless they are shooting from the
hip)
2. Know where the shutter release is and understand the neccesity of
depressing it.
I won't mention where focus is at, whether it's desired, or if montion blur
is acceptable.
Voila, we have a photographer.
