I am not sure the appropriate way to handle very strong and rigid opinions that seem counterproductive or even harmful. It says everywhere in the guidance on this site that everyone is entitled to their opinion, but not all opinions are equal or equally valid. And some are really judgmental in disguise of supposed "advice." When I see that happening, I really want to do something to change the direction of the thread, but meta-comments are also not allowed so I feel confused about the whole thing.
