Critics usually don't care about the "social standing" of the artist. Or they shouldn't, at any rate.
And they wouldn't get flamed, they would just have people who strongly disagree with them.

You really want to know my answer on this one? I think the speech that instigated a greater percentage of people towards the cause it was supporting was the better speech. I don't know which one it was in this case.

But that's not measurable. And even if it were measurable, it wouldn't stand the test of time because you can't measure how many people were swayed by the Gettysburg Address
today.
And you definitely can't measure documents that way.
