CMV: The "If You Don't Have Anything Nice To Say, Don't Say It" and Other Similar Mindses are a Disease

I don't know who these people are or what type they are but my logic goes beyond the fact that I can't fathom this mindset, I cannot in, any, way, see how this is beneficial to a singular person or to a society. I want to tackle where I personally mainly see this mindset because of my own interests: movies/television, video games, and music industry.

\#1 Moves/TV) I don't think this needs to be pointed out, just bad movies. The main culprit of these is usually remakes of almost any kind, especially ones that have some kind of hidden agenda. I don't think anything really needs to be said, some may call me a bigot for all-female recast remakes but I think the best counter to this is the new and old Charlie's Angels. Both are an all female main cast of badass females but this new one is total and utter shit in comparison. Yet if public figures who are popular criticize it, even when it's constructive, they're suddenly a terrible person. just \*sigh\*

\#2 Video Games) Oh boy do I have something to say about this one. The people out there who defend microtransactions and bad video games seem to me, to be the lowest IQ individuals possible. See I defend DLC, DLC gives us more newer content that developers may not have come up with at first when the game was first conceptualized, I get that. But microtransactions, holy hell, here is my critique of them. 

When a game's DLC doesn't sell well companies tend to notice that and either abandon making DLC like it or the game altogether if the game is bad. Meaning we gamers shift their focus so they can work on newer, better endeavors. Now for the "If you hate microtransactions don't buy them" people out there, listen to this. There is a very large portion of the population that doesn't buy the shitty microtransactions and tell me, unlike DLC, what are we rewarded with? Do the developers get less greedy, are there less microtransactions, no no there isn't. Despite years of me and several others not purchasing Activision, Blizzard, and Bethesda content they are still getting more greedy and adding more microtransactions. We don't buy them and yet we're still changing nothing, sounds like we need, oh yeah, criticism.

\#3 Music) haha, hahah, HAHAHAHAHA. \*cough\* Does anything need to be said for this? No particular genre or artist is guilty; this sadly applies to any artist and the more popular you are the more likely they have fans like this so it's not their fault unlike the above examples. These people despite supposedly praising their music artist (more like worshipping tbh) and wanting them to succeed their toxic and obsessive behavior only causes to alienate potential fans. Yet you call them out and their automatic response? You're a hater, no ifs or buts about it, there's no way in possible hell that you're offering constructive criticism on the matter, nope. 

The reason I cite this is because I do not believe media is entirely subjective as you've probably well noticed from above. There is a such a good thing as bad/good video games, music, shows, etc. **HOWEVER BEFORE YOU CRUCIFY ME** that does not I mean I believe they can't be enjoyable. I have what I believe to be terrible media in my library. I have my guilty pleasure shows, bad music (specifically kpop), and more in my daily lives. I realize that it's not good and don't try to defend them, but as stated above any criticism from me towards them is just me being negative because that music artist or song is in reality a brilliant work of art that needs to be worshipped.

Now I have tried to see if maybe I can on my own change my mind as I have done with several other topics like politics but I can't. I don't know if it's subconscious bias or whatever, but I just can't alone. So change my mind, I would actually like to hear examples or anecdotes of where this mindset could/is beneficial.

If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything, is moreso a commentary on personal interactions, and not talking about critiquing a public work. 

Don't tell Ted to his face that you think he's stupid, is pretty different advice than, never say bad things about microtransactions. 

One of those is a person, and one of those is a business model. One of those has feelings and the other is an algorithm. 

Critiquing bad business practices, is a whole other category than telling people to their face that they have character flaws.
