My thought on the “Let people enjoy things” convo: Obv. I think critics should not pull punches. If one thinks a work is bad, they should unequivocally say as much in their review. Any viewer should feel free to say as much.

However, if you deliberately go around showing up in people’s mentions to tell them that the thing they like is bad actually, then you’re probably being an asshole. There’s a difference between expressing yourself honestly and cramming your opinions down people’s throats.

(Of course in my experience it’s typically the other way around. A person reasonably expresses a dislike or a critique of something and then the “let people enjoy things” gang jump on them. Like, fuck off, let people NOT enjoy things.)
