People often complain that a photographer has objectified a particular subject whilst forgetting that cameras objectify everything that they capture regardless of the intention of the photographer.
What makes photography interesting is that a photo tells you everything and nothing about a subject.
Nothing shown in any photograph is real because you're looking at an impression of reality at a single moment in time.

It's not objectifying, it's stereotypising with the most werid stuff you can find.
Yeah you could find people riding on horse-drawn carts in Poland in 80s. 1 for every 100 cars or more. Now count cars and horses on these photos :)
