At what point do we realize that anybody can be a critic, anything can be worth criticism, and being a critic is very easy while doing anything of practical value is very difficult?
The moment we realize this, I think that we should stop giving critics so much influence and acting like their criticisms are automatically valid for being criticisms. (Maybe it's just me, but I have increasingly low respect for critics because it is actually such a lazy, easy job that drags down everybody even trying to do something.)
- dEnigma 4y agoThe healthy response to that situation is to just look at whatever good points critics raise, work on them, and ignore the rest. But best to check with someone else if "the rest" really doesn't contain anything valid that you should pay attention to as well.
