Why was the self-taught always frowned upon?

Self-taught usually stands for "loser who didn't make it and pretends to be smart". I'm not saying that everyone who claims to be self-taught falls into this category, but that's the usual impression that one claiming to be self-taught gives. But don't keep yourself from learning just because of that.

Have you ever been self taught in anything? I have and while it's cool to discover a bunch of stuff all alone I found that my thinking proccess was too complicated sometimes and that made me slow. It was much clearer when I was regularly taught the topics afterwards and got further than I could alone.

Jealous that those who are self-taught can get results without brain licking those who wrote books. Ironically self-taught people actually end up using raw brain power whereas students use sloppy left overs.

Those who are capable of acquiring knowledge that isn’t filtered through the brainwashing and social engineering centers of the academic system are a legitimate threat to authority

Probably because there is no real way to certify that the person has the knowledge. Thats why people go to universities since they are trusted enough that when they say a person knows x, y and z then its a good enough bet to believe them.

Because universities and businesses are gate keeping PUTOS who want everyone to go throught the process so they can fleece them and get as many people indebted to them otherwise you can't get a decent job

There are ranges of self taught. I self taught my self to make burgers is completely fine. I self taught my self to be a webshit and just skid around is mostly fine. I self myself electrical engineering probably not fine. And so on. No self learners is diligent enough to learn more complicated topics well enough compared to someone who went through college.

The presence of standards makes mediocre people think they're gods. Just ask coworkers
