Style is defined in a number of ways as it applies to a creative image. It might be defined by a specific genre or simply be recognizable as the characteristics of how a specific artist applies light to a subject. It can impact an image in a positive manner when the subject matter and the style are appropriate for each other, or it can have a negative effect when they are at odds.
Now, stupidity is one thing, but being offensive is another.
To me this one is down right offensive. I am not sure if anybody is entitled to evaluate and criticize style. There is no measuring stick for evaluating style. Don't say, "how about originality?" That is different from style. Often these two are mixed up conveniently.
Criticizing style is like talking crap about how others raise their children.
You acknowledge it, like it or not like it, then make sure that it is entirely taken out of the evaluation process. It is irrelevant, completely.
So, if you ever get the urge to say negative things about style, you should take a deep breath, and move on to something else.
