“Also Siderite, I don’t think that I’m an ‘expert’ at all.”
It really doesn’t come across like that to me. I am sceptical, which is why I am sceptical of you, yet I get berated. If you don’t want me to think like this then address the concerns, or just accept I am a person who might not view you positively in some regards, fairly or not. I try to be reasonable, but personal opinions won’t be changed without demonstration. Which means less dismissiveness and smug pronouncements for me. If you don’t think you need to change, fine (it is just my opinion), but you can’t police how I view your demeanour.
