(not the OP)
I honestly think some people are just not used to get pushback on their ideas. Whether they are surrounded by like-minded individuals in real life or they just haven't ever shared their believes/thoughts much, I don't know. But I quite often see people shocked by encountering the concept that their ideas aren't perfect.
Couple that with the difficulty of reading intent and intensity in a written media and you get people that believe conversations are heavily skewed against them.
