If everybody hates you, you are NOT doing something right. If everybody loves you, then you're doing it right, and in fact you barely even have to do anything

If everybody hates you, you are NOT doing something right. If everybody loves you, then you're doing it right, and in fact you barely even have to do anything because everybody's helping you.

In this day and age it more like if you are doing anything of significance you will have people who hate you.

  Or it means nothing, it just means you're doing something, good or bad.

    Agreed, the best way not to get criticism is do nothing.

Listen up, kids! Always do what everyone else is doing, never make anyone mad, always choose the popular path. /s It seems like everything worth doing nowadays results in someone hating you.

  I'm not talking high school here, I'm talking about real life. Popularity and conformity are orthogonal. In the early stages of doing something, they can be somewhat opposed, so you'd be partly right in that case. But you push through that and don't complain, and wait and see what people think whom you've actually managed to help. The most worthy path is the one that helps the most people. Not coincidentally, each of those people you've helped, becomes a supporter of yours, in some capacity. You become popular. So the worthy path ends up being the popular path. That doesn't mean the popular path is always the worthy path. People can become popular for really stupid reasons and without really helping anybody. I actually think Musk is such a person; I literally don't think any of his projects are "worth doing" and you are just gonna have to grant me my opinion there. So if I'm not impressed with his outlandish narcissistic persecution-fantasy of extremist groups being out to get him, it's not because he's doing something worth doing, it's because he's NOT.

  "It seems like everything worth doing nowadays results in someone hating you." No, not in the least. Especially when the things that make people mad, in this case, treating your workers horribly, are entirely avoidable.

People who got it wrong will still hate you because you got it right and they got it wrong. So they will try to convince other people that you got it wrong not them. Its not always black and white.
