One does not need to cite a source of criticism, it is in itself the criticism.

One needs to cite a source for a claim that a particular criticism is widespread.
The burden of proof is on the person making the empirically unfalsifiable claims.
You're playing with words to deflect from the argument. No one has to have proof that they have a criticism. They have to have proof that the criticism is as stated. The evidence is self evident given the OP post.

Many share my opinion, and I don't have to prove that. Nor should I, and neither do you for any position you have. Address the argument.

You have to have proof that a claim is "widespread" if you are asserting it as such without any sources, as you have.
