About critics

Okay, let me share an opinion I recently formed and that will soon become unpopular if it actually catch fire:

Critics are not for creators/artists.
Critics are there for the audience. They are here to help the audience not waste their hard earned money/free time to shit they will not like, they are here to help expose hidden gem the audience might not know of. That the artist benefit/suffer from it is just consequential.

Critic trying to tell creators how they should do what they do is an act of pointlessness. Critics should focus on helping the audience find things they might enjoy/enlighten them.
