Well said, it's hard to argue against those points especially the one in bold
But...
It attracts douchebags who are just looking for the next hip gimmick
It is in general poorly structured
Its all about the money
It claims to create elite athletes, it does not, it has elite athletes join who become elite crossfitters, no elite crossfitter has made a crossover into another sport just through training crossfit
It chews up and spits out good coaches and experts
It has kipping chin-ups!!!
Yes I do,I've been following crossfit's progression for a long time and although I've never done it I have a fair idea of what its about and how its performed. I am aware that there are good coaches who have transformed the original mess into something useful and progressive and safe, but I'm also aware that for every good coach there are 20 retards in their $1000 t-shirts who have just jumped on the bandwagon out of zealotry or greed.
Technically I perform "crossfit" in my training, although I've personally always referred to it as conditioning complexes, something I started doing well before some fat egomaniacal fuck decide to label it and market it.
I like exercise, I like that crossfit has got a lot of people under the bar and into the gym, I like that it gets you fit and ripped, I like that it makes chicks hot, etc.

Do you understand my distaste for it now?
and if you call withing the next 30 minutes u will get a free set of Zumpower toning bumpers, they rattle when they move so you can deadlift with the beat of the music AND BE THE MUSIC!. (zumpower toning bumpers increase fat loss by up to 30%)I've got a new style!
Deadlifts and Zumba......I call it Zumpower
Now all I need is a xfit marketer and I'm rich.....
I might be onto something here??? Hmmm.
Majority of peoples problems with crossfit are either unfounded or incorrect. It definitely has its problems, but most people are way off.
Cleans with mixed grip is absurd.
That's nice to knowAnd not a crossfit movement...
this.So fully explain it to us all then.
And not a crossfit movement...
There absolutely is progression in lifts, if a client starts Thrusters with just a 15kg bar, in 4 months time they shouldn't be doing any, less than 30kgs. I personally went from 15 - 40kgs in a little over three months....
according to deep it does lol..
That's called coaching/personal training. I doubt you give your clients WOD's. I'm sure you are already aware of what it is called.I get people lifting and fit does the way I train them deserve it's own name?
