He started it.

If I get up on a stage with a grin splitting my face and talk 
about how great D is, I'm considered a hero.  But if I criticize 
D for it's flaws, then I'm a troll or someone who is just 
ranting.  Anybody has the right to criticize D, just as people 
have the right to praise it.  If D is part of your identity to 
the point where you can't stand hearing people criticize it and 
then get offended, then you have issues.  Grow up.
