IMPORTANT: “Criticism” that starts with “All *…” or is obviously insulting, or defaming beyond verified facts is excluded.

You might be thinking “no shit, Sherlock”, but it is really common that legitimate criticism is dismissed as anti-* or *-phobic, or because of political or religious ideology.

    I think it’s fair to say whether or not someone claims so has nothing to do with it actually being the case.

    Edit: This reminds me of people saying “I am a good person”, which subconsciously (rightfully so or not) makes me mistrustful of them.
