I don't pay attention to negative rhetoric. I don't think we should all be Pollyanna's all the time, but there are constructive ways of offering ideas, comments and suggestions that don't need to evolve into negativity.

Being brutally honest may be deemed as being negative to some however you can either accept or ignore said criticism. It's when they "do" something that elicits a response.

The only social media I read is here Anthony Acosta - ALLATLANTACONDOS.COM and I don't consider anyone here an "asshole" although there are some pretty arrogant individuals here. Most of the criticisim here is done in a light hearted manor and can be pretty amusing.
On FB I belong to some autism awareness groups and I've never read a harsh word in those groups.

With all rhetoric, positive or negative, the source is the only consideration.
(The source of the information, or the source from which you derive your personal energy? YES)
And all things should be taken with a Himalayan lamp's worth of pink salt, while you use your instincts to decide what is true for you.
Fawning sycophants are often far more dangerous then curmudgeonly rag bitches.
Many folks are short on critical thinking skills.

My question must be have you ever been a member of the group you mention?
There is a hint that is the direction you are headed. For example is not everything you needed to say contained in "Do you pay attention to negative rhetoric?"
You raised your hand with the sentence that preceded the only thing you needed to say.
Be aware, you are able to delete your question but for my sake, here is a copy of your question.
There are many assholes online criticizing and critiquing what others say or do, Do you pay attention to negative rhetoric?
