The problem with this mindset is that frequently whatever's being picked at did do better, it just didn't do perfect because, despite what some SJ spheres tend to believe, improvement is almost always an incremental process.

And yes, criticism is an important part of improvement, but criticism is not the same as having an utter toxic meltdown and insisting that making a good-faith effort but missing the mark is somehow worse than making no effort whatsoever or being actively malicious.

AYRT

To be clear, I am not actually saying that everyone's criticisms are always right or polite or kind, or that even all of them are coming from the place I mentioned, just that for some of them it's possible, since I don't believe I'm all that unique. I don't disagree that some people on the intertubes take it wayyyyy too far, but identifying that underlying process can be useful if you ever want to communicate with that one friend who seems a little too vehement.
