I think that dismissal culture makes no sense when it is aimed towards artists.
For me it is kind of hard to like the things I produce, because of the obvious egocentrism bias. Do I like it, because I like it, or do I like it, because I made it and had to sacrifice something for it?
When I'm judging other people's work and I like it, I consider that feeling to be more genuine, even if the creator outright panders to my preferences.
