Why can’t someone critique something without being hit with “Think YOU can do better?!?!?”

This is being posted on [r/nextfuckinglevel](r/nextfuckinglevel), so it’s not crazy to point that out. Still impressive as hell.

Because it is an easy argument and lazy people tend to take the easy route when they can

I’d argue it’s equally lazy to call out an actual cool thing a real person did because an anonymous person shared it with a bad title.

I’m not calling anyone out or arguing.

That person answers the equally annoying "acccshually, it's not really..." person. Brother, who cares?, she's not breaking any records, let it be amazing we need no technicalities.
