It does if you have engineering goals and the _manner_ in which you are being a negative or critical to other people is preventing the team from achieving those goals.
Negativity does not always come with skepticism, by the way:
Some people are negative in the sense that they demoralise others, yet are full of uncritical enthusiasm to use every random idea and technology they hear about. Which may be what is demoralising others :)
