Some writers find such comments helpful, after all, and that certainly seems the spirit of the first comment in this string, to be helpful.
And while I also agree with you that sometimes comments are off the mark, I am betting in this case that Petrean_04 would appreciate a brief apology, for the tone of your comment which perhaps you'll agree got a wee bit personal. We all make mistakes from time to time after all. Aside from that, though, perhaps we can also agree it's time to let "very small" matters rest.
Wishing you a good 2022, free of Twitter irritants and pettiness--

My mentioning of petty pretentions cloaked in authoritative psycho-babble deserves no repenting, recanting or burning at the proverbial stake.🎯
Pseudo dogmatic proselytizing on/in a Taibbi comment forum is a "wee bit" unkool, especially when it is not invited.☸
