I’m puzzled by this comment. Ilya didn’t say anything about “e.g. Twitter” (he did mention the Slate Star Codex comments section, which is a far cry from Twitter), and he didn’t say anything about “everyone with an opinion”.
I am reading “So if folks sound confident” as “So if [all/any] folks sound confident”. I believe Ilya’s point is that no one should have strong opinions on race/IQ and I disagree with it.
