Yes, I agree. I think many people ought to learn the basics of what the Buddha taught about māna:Peter said: People need to get over themselves. If a particular website isn't to your liking then why not just move on?
māna
'conceit', pride, is one of the 10 fetters binding to existence (s. samyojana). It vanishes completely only at the entrance to Arahatship, or Holiness (cf. asmi-māna). It is further one of the proclivities (s. anusaya) and defilements (s. kilesa). "
The (equality-) conceit (māna), the inferiority-conceit (omāna) and the superiority-conceit (atimāna): this threefold conceit should be overcome. For, after overcoming this threefold conceit, the monk, through the full penetration of conceit, is said to have put an end suffering" (A. VI, 49).
"Those ascetics and brahman priests who, relying on this impermanent, miserable and transitory nature of corporeality, feelings, perceptions, mental formations and consciousness, fancy: 'Better am I', or 'Equal am I', or 'Worse am I', all these imagine thus through not understanding reality" (S. XXII, 49).
In reality no ego-entity is to be found. Cf. anattā.

I think it would be best for us to follow the example of the Buddha in the Akkosa Sutta.
Insults and denigration belong to the speaker, not the one denigrated.
The Buddha also taught that someone telling here what they say they have heard there is Wrong Speech, .... kammasakata.
Akkosa Sutta - Samyutta Niikaya 7.2
