Civility argument is about protecting the powerful. Let people have opinions. We all know why people are upset. Downplaying it just makes someone sound like an apologist.

People are voicing their opinions, what's the big deal? We should all agree with these gamer tantrums?

"Tantrums" show your true purpose: denigration.

Yeah these review bombings are ridiculous, so what? Am I not free to express my opinion? And I'm not quite sure how anyone's not allowed to have their opinion, if it's dumb then you can call it dumb.

It's not a review bombing to review a deliberately hostile game as a bad game.

Are the reviewers not allowed to express their opinions even though other people think it's dumb?
