        I think this person just assumes, whether consciously or not, that everyone questioning them is just a big, monolithic, mass that they are superior to, and therefore it doesn’t matter that they are addressing a number of different people, and critiques, the same way.

          To be fair to this idiot, social media can feel like that sometimes when everybody disagrees with you. Different people have different techniques to handle that. Some just shut up, others like them just double down and get absolutely rekt.

            This is true. I often find myself not reading names and occasionally it leads to me addressing one person thinking they are another.
