This should be the baseline. Do I think some people are too actively smug about their opinions on social media and make it their brand? Absolutely.
But criticism is about having an opinion. Stand by it and defend it.

I do not fully trust critics who are not both lovers and haters. All I want is for you to have some kind of taste, some kind of ethic, and I want you to argue in favor of it, which should inevitably mean that you greatly admire some works in your chosen field and definitely don’t admire others.
