Rants get me down. It really is possible to be constructively critical. This author failed.

A good rant should be like political satire, a biting critique using absurdism to highlight the truth of the matter.

A bad rant is usually just impotent rage without wit.

Have you read the whole page? Just the subdomain is "HARMFUL". The page is a compilation of good and BS critics for any language.

Have to agree (although I'm one to rant)
