I disagree. I think people who offer nonconstructive criticism deserve to be ignored - if only by a block by the offended party - or silenced. Not every artist is averse to criticism, I submit pieces specifically for that purpose and being free of mouthpieces hurling grade school insults at me would mean less noise to sort through looking for meaningful insight on my art. I would improve faster not wasting my time on these people.
We're mostly on the internet for entertainment. The idea thasome people's form of entertainment is causing harm to strangers and because that harm might make others thicker skinned, that makes it good, isn't something that sits right by me. Just cease the harm. People are more cruel to others online because there is a breakdown of the restraints that keep them altruistic and good, namely real and often fast consequences. Disturbing the peace is a real thing, and it is a thing here too. Toxic behaviour needs to be chastised onlinejust as it is offline, especially given how many people's work and lives now revolve around using internet communication.
