What’s all this bullsh*t I keep hearing about “real” actors versus comedians/improvisers?

I am continually shocked by this odd separation within our community over who is really an actor and who is “just a comedian.” What’s really disconcerting is the amount of improvisers and comedians that brand themselves with this archaic label. I have heard friends who I hold in high esteem as performers condescend to themselves in a conversation about being an actor. It is completely ludicrous.
