The Worst Time to Be a Music Critic
I feel like it's never been a worse time to be a critic because we're just so easy to attack for being haters. You can write something positive but just insufficiently positive and people will snap on you. It's almost like the fan contingents in culture know that they have this upper head and they're really reveling in it. And I think often treat responses as mutually exclusive, right? Like the person who's mad about either thing is also someone who didn't even like this specific thing. That's the real problem that's emerged in the current internet hater dynamic.
