You may have noticed that, throughout all of history, it has been the
dissatisfied who were responsible for all of progress, whether directly
or indirectly. Dissent is /not always/ whining.
...although it certainly /can/ be.
I suggest that, if you are hearing valid (to someone, anyone) dissent
as whining, you are coloring your opinion with your own .. feelings
about the matter. (didn't want to re-use the word, "opinion")
