I’ve had this debate before and was unable to come to a conclusion. It seems to me that any criticism, no matter how valid, could be characterized as harassment.
What do you guys think?
Is there a heuristic for determining which one a statement is?
Does everything just exist on a continuum between the two?
Is this harassment?
Are they the same thing?
Criticism can be harrasment, but harrasment does not nessecary be criticism.
I would imagine the line would be somewhere that concensus (sometimes in the form of the law) say it is. The target of the criticism alone would not be a good measure by itself (I could imagine large polluters would find protest against them harrasment a lot sooner than what the general public would think it is.).
Does the line then become visible when it targets individuals? I think it is a very interesting question.
News-articles that don’t cite primary-sources are BS
Criticism or harassment?
