It's about the tone, not the critique.

What VigUi7vv8G2 is saying about dopamine might be correct but his tone is anti-social.

He could have left "Oh dear god." and "What the fuck? This is the dumbest thing I've read in a while." out of it and it would have been a perfect helpful response.

Precisely. There's a difference in criticism with the intent of being constructive and that being destructive or only for the purpose of inflating one's ego.

Tone.
