Why does "Wholesaling" have a negative connotation?

Hi Everyone! I'm newer to BP, the forum that is, but I've been a huge fan of the podcast over the last year and a half. I've learned a lot and I'm grateful for the platform! I'm interested to hear from different people if they think "Wholesaling" has a negative association and why? Any thoughts, feedback or questions are welcome!

Thanks in advance, Friends!

Lying to sellers, lying to buyers, lying about ARVs, lying about rehab costs, annoying marketing tactics. And all this stuff could be ignored and wouldn't be such a big deal except there's sooo many of them. So one here and there isn't a big deal, but being inundated with texts, cold calls, and unsolicited emails from them and their VA's making the phone unanswerable is a bummer.

And I know the common response will be that there's some good ones out there, but they are few and far between.
