Its valid, because you see the absurdity and wastefulness of a person seeing a need for band-aids and flying them down there personally to snap selfies.

It would be valid if that were what was actually happening.

It is not what is happening, therefore it is invalid.

I'm not saying all or most missionaries do this.

Completely disagree.

I'm not saying everyone who's ever gone on a mission trip is as pure as the driven snow (that's unrealistic), but your assertion that there's this rising demographic that's solely interested in these trips to deliver band-aids and snap selfies is, quite frankly, preposterous.
