Because feminism is a good thing. It's one of the most positive and helpful social movements of the past century, and to have people saying that evil actions are intrinsically feminist implies that something has gone badly wrong.

We all love a good villain or antihero, the character you love to hate. I've often complained that there's not enough really good female villains out there; Azula from Avatar is a personal favorite of mine. But it's a problem when folks don't just have fun with an evil character, they have to JUSTIFY their evil actions and make them sympathetic or in the right. We see this with Poor Abused Loki, Reliable Narrator Humbert Humbert, Basically Decent Walter White, and now with Totes Feminist Amy Dunne. I find the latter even more pernicious because it's associating--even equating--sociopathic actions with feminism.

TL;DR: The problem isn't that it's okay to criticize Amy because she's feminist, the problem is that calling her feminist is an insult to feminism.
