I don't believe ridicule should be the immediate response. However this comment and its tone is exactly the kind of thing you're bemoaning, but from other direction. The only difference is you're being preemptive about it and basically announcing it at nobody in particular instead of reacting to one person specifically.

I'm not being preemptive. I'm responding to general ridicule of lonely people who are falling prey to grifters.

Your comment is honestly incoherent. Maybe you can refine it.

It's definitely not incoherent but I did accidentally write at an 11th grade level according to readability checkers.
