Ah. I see. There is some prerequisite amount of bullshit you need to know before you can have any ideas.

What a helpful gentleman! (And we all know he was a "he" simply because of his wording.)

The world is full of asshole commenters, and only a handful of content creators. So there will always be asshole comments on EVERY bit of content. It's just numbers.

Keep doing what you are doing, and NEVER respond to ANY comment like that. No matter how much you want to... it is what they live for. So JUST DON'T.

I did respond (very diplomatically), only for that sweet facebook engagement algorithm. Some guy down the line commented "why not try being a bit kinder and less aggressive? Would you rather be right or kind?"

I consider it a win ;)
