The comment casts a lot of aspersions on academics but doesn't actually justify any of it.

so, tone policing. I'm not an academic but from my limited interaction with philosophy subreddits (r/philosophy, r/askphilosophy), which seem to an outsider to have an academic bent, there is 0 interest in the intersection of cs and philosophy/ethics; so from my outsider perspective he doesn't even seem entirely meritless in his tone.

I'm not complaining about the tone of his criticisms. I'm complaining about the absence of any justification of them.
