"yeah, absolutely false" is offputting to read, especially when you're not contracting anything said there. you're confirming a bunch of it, and adding more.

as a reader with only a little emotional investment here (but some), i want to tell you your message would spread much better if you could shape it some other way. your post has a lot of good material. but man that is really not fun to read, couched so adversarially.

this is something i work on myself. often i think there is real reason to take a person to task, and to respond strongly, but trying to keep the broader audience in mind. and: i don't think that was the case here.
