It's important to remember that the argument against lobbying isn't about the broadest sense of the word "lobbying", but rather about corporations and other moneyed interests having unfair and unhealthy influence over the laws that govern everyone else.
The people who decry lobbying probably agree with you; they're just using the word in an implicitly narrow context.
I think we mostly agree, but disagree on this point. I think it's just that most people haven't given it any thought. Like they are just ignorantly going along with the popular opinion.
I suppose mob mentality is likely to play some part in every widely shared view.
At the very least, I can guarantee that one of said people has given it thought. :)
