Based on your own standard, I'm wondering why people should take you seriously when you use terms like 'rabid'.

I don't agree with GP that naysayers might be "rabid" but I certainly know someone who was bitten by a bat(coin). "Rabid" is bang-on for at least some people.

It's relevant and non-hypocritical. It may not be the best comment, but neither was yours.

Some people are in fact rabid, and the comment is addressing only them by definition. It stands up to scrutiny.

I wouldn't usually bother, but this has a distinct style. Could it be ... the author, as a sock? Maybe it's a different belicose bald brit.
