In general, I don't think you should distain or imply distain for much at all. Similarly dictating the actions of others should probably have a high bar.

If you are suggesting that I am implying distain for criticism or that critism should not be made, that was certainly not my intent. I would much rather question why it is happening, place it in context, and perhaps suggest alternatives, instead of taking a knee jerk "This is bad, you are bad" approach.

Have I not done that?



> Have I not done that?

No. My impression was that you were saying Molly's comment went too far and that she shouldn't have made it.

> It is ok to say that you didn't like it. The line is when you imply that it was wrong to have made it.

Maybe we have different ideas about what it means to "cross a line", it's an imprecise idiom.
