This meme is old enough that the .45/1911 worship wasn't even a fudd thing, it was a huge section of the gun community if not the majority. The era of the Para Ordnance double stack being taken seriously and the Springfield TRP Operator being the ultimate combat pistol, at least if you couldn't afford a Wilson. All sorts of actual high speed guys were turning their noses up at 9mm to get their hands on a .45.
