Sorry but some negative comments are necessary and very good for society. People constantly try to peddle lies in the media and on the internet for their own benefit. The sooner those lies are shot down the better. I have been reading a lot of financial articles lately, and i have to say at least half of the financial editorials i see peddle some idea that is false and/or extremely harmful to anyone that believes it. A critical mind is absolutely necessary to survive in modern society. And when one expresses critical thinking one is just helping others. Of course as with anything one can always go overboard. Some people exhibit a type of reflexive negativity, they simply dismiss everything that is new and different without thinking much about it. I think PG called this "the middlebrow putdown." One should always consider things carefully before criticizing in public. But saying negative comments are bad in general is just wrong.
