    but then how else will @WPG be able to reframe entire convos in his favor if not by throwing out the phrase "straw man" when ever he's getting backed into a corner??

    because good writing isnt dependent on you agreeing with the author

    I know, but shouldn't such reviews be objective?

    And how did I sound dumb?

    by saying a review would be s--- even if it was well written, because you disagree with the rating.

    if you dont agree with the rating, all that means is that, at most, one aspect of the review is really off base (in your pov) -- but if the rest of it (you know the writing, the reasoning, the criticisms, etc) seems rational and fleshed out for the most part, how can it be a s--- review?

    hahah i completely get it tho -- a 4/.710 or whatever for MMLP is r-----ed. absolutely sensational marketing, or maybe genuine pretentious douche bag-ry

    But I'm sure the review is still well written (i havent actually read it lol). if anything, it probably reads like a 7/10 or something, but at that point, a negative review will be seen as a negative review, despite the actual number, so they might go for something lower to make more waves idk

    People who obsess over numerical ratings or opinions that they fink are wrong shouldn't get to have an opinion of their own. Argue with the reasoning, not the position, you dumb fuccs
