What are your expectations exactly when you try to patronize people and tell them about their "total ignorance" while also just throwing out links to random blog posts?

If someone replies with insults and then just links to a google search page you wouldn't think they're some sort of authority because they promised you the evidence to their claim is out there somewhere.

If you want people to actually respect what you're saying you need to do things differently from both angles. Stop the toxic claims of authority and give simple explanations that are direct replies to what people are talking about.
