most criticism is justification of having done an overt. There are rightnesses
and wrongnesses in conduct and society and life at large, but random, carping 1.1 criticism when not borne out in fact is only an effort to reduce the size of the target of the overt. (HCOB 21 Jan 60, Justification)
- a criticism is a hope that they can damage, and that's what a criticism is, with an inability to do so. (SH Spec 119, 6202C22)
