I really hate the "X Considered harmful" type of articles, like by who? Inevitably they try to fake a larger consensus where one does not exist.
Just be hones and say "I think X is a bad idea"...

Exactly. Use simple language. State what you like / dislike about something and provide a compelling argument. Don't try to add false legitimacy with a "considered harmful" title. If your argument has a broad consensus, then state exactly which groups have come to that conclusion.
