I'm getting burned out on all the narcissists writing articles about how they thought everyone else was an imbecile, and rudely raged at everyone most of their career, and how great they are because they got slightly less cancerous. Life is too short for that, if you love something, or have a technical opinion, be a kind hearted teacher and discusser not a rage monster.

This comment probably breaks the site guideline which asks: "Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith."

I didn't read it super closely but it seems obvious he's just using that language as a form of self-criticism. No need to pile on. (Edit: also, I think some of this is cultural differences.)
