I call baloney.

Criticism is a foundation for free thought, free speech, and is
necessary for people to grow outside their own realm of
influence/experience.

Part of criticism is sometimes saying things that others view as "not
nice", and having such things said to you.

Part of the qualities of tolerance and self-esteem lie in being
personally strong enough to listen to others opinions (regardless of
how they are worded) without taking offense, and to truly evaluate the
opposing position without prejudice.

All that said, it's also wise to choose your battles, lest you become
viewed only as a nitpicking harridan.
