One of my pet peeves is landscape photos with non-level horizons. I was lead to believe early on that that was a no-no. Recently, I commented on a Facebook page of “Old and Interesting Places” in which the photographer posted a photo of a cool old dilapidated stone barn, but it obviously was a lazy shot from inside a car and at about a 30-degree slant. I politely suggested that the slant distracted from an otherwise fine photo. My comment was greeted with frowny-face emojis and comments about me being an “ass”. The OP said if I didn’t take my comment down, she was going to report me to the page admin. Others piled on in similar snowflake-triggered responses.

Was I out of line? Am I mistaken that leaving landscape horizons un-level is a cardinal sin?
