The black-and-white thinking I was referring to sees only cultlike thinking versus non-cultlike thinking (the latter being the thinking of the critic, of course). There are, in fact, many shades in between (as I pointed out in the part of my post you chose not to quote and perhaps didn't bother to read), as well as overlaps in which the critic engages in anticult cultlike thinking.
