That's one way the internet trips us up; whether bad actor or not, someone giving us shit gives us pause as it is ambiguous whether they have the stature to do so. If it were in person, if they'd dare, we'd have a much better idea how seriously their words should be taken.
Of course we should not hesitate to use this to our advantage against our pompously credentialed enemies, but insofar as we care about our own cause above pretending to know better on the internet, each of us should aim to be realistic about the value of our interjections when talking to our own. Conversely, we can regard those who fail to do so as unserious or bad actors.
Definitely spot on about blackpillers not wanting to open themselves up to losing by having hope for anything at all.
I love where this one ended up, lol.
