"Ordinals are waste of block space."
"Bitcoin mining is a waste of electricity."
Spot the difference! In both cases, people are unhappy about free market and want some central commitee to decide who gets scarce resources. There is a target you can blame and hate. But if it is waste, wasters lose money and have to stop once they run out of money.
Still, I do blame and hate ordinals, just don't want to censor it.
OK, there is a difference, block space is fixed, you cannot generate more, unlike electricity. But even this does not justify central commitee.
