He's trying to call out the "people" who hate everything. Of course he's referring to the internet, in which millions of people share opinions, so there will always be someone who doesn't like something (sometimes for good reason).

What Smoked hostage is doing is taking the entirety of negative opinions expressed by anyone for anything, and lumping them all together. If person A doesn't like a new direction of a game, and person B doesn't like that a game plays the same, despite being two different people with two different opinions, they are now those hypocritical people who whine about everything.

Generally, if you intend to rant on or stand up to the views you feel are expressed on the internet, it helps best if you can call out a specific group of people or a specific incident.

If he could call out some people that complained about how Punchout!! did nothing new but are now complaining that Other M is too different, well then he'd have something.

I know people who had fanboy rage when Wind Waker was revealed, and yet once TP came out the very same people praised WW and raged on TP.

Probably the best example of the cycle I can think of.
