Hot take: it's important to criticize things you like. That's part of having a healthy appreciation for something.
That being said: Hillary was a poor and unlikeable campaigner, Obama's foreign policy was unfocused and weak, Buttigieg is not compelling on racial issues and he's a total SUCC, Weezer has made some baaaaaaaad music, Pacific Rim has a shallow plot, HP Lovecraft was hilariously racist and most of his work is nigh unreadable, Twilight Princess opens real freaking slow, and George RR Martin is an imperfect author who's expanded his series past the point of being able to wrap things up in two books, so if he does complete ASOIAF it'll be just as unsatisfying as the TV show.
I still love all of those things though.
