I agree, you have to be careful and it's always better to give the benefit of the doubt online if you're unsure, or simply to ask them directly. But if you see somebody doing this repeatedly, that can make it a lot easier to read, and some people seem to get seriously pumped by their own savage put-downs. I would say the people you are talking about aren't going to change. They don't even care if they are taken seriously it seems to me. They just want attention and like to hear themselves talk. I will never understand these kinds of people. I have a few people on ignore, most recently this user named Jason, who just asserts that anybody who claims to like/love Tenet is just lying to themselves. I don't know if he actually believes this or if he just likes to rile people up. Both are a definite possibility, because I know people who are legitimately convinced of their own bold faced assertions. That some people's POV is so different that they think the other person is lying. It is ego, plain and simple. You make some salient points. I don't think this style of criticism typically engenders interesting conversation or pointed analysis, but it's doubtful that's the intent (if there is any). I guess in its favour, it lets you know exactly what that person thinks and some people derive great humour from it.
