I often ask myself: How do we cultivate communities, in games, popular cinema, music, etc., that actually understand the purpose of criticism and that value a diversity of critical perspectives, rather than just wanting reviews that comfort fans and reinforce their beliefs?https://twitter.com/oneunderscore__/status/1288929920966692866 …

Ebert, who wasn't as divisive as Kael, also got enough flack for this that he occasionally spoke up about it. He was well-established enough that he could write what he wanted, though he probably enjoyed that much power because he was in line with the public most of the time.

Yeah, he definitely championed smaller and more daring films and sometimes panned popular ones. You're right that he wasn't as divisive as Kael but I do think he had his own point of view and was true to it.
