The point isn’t that she’s malicious. She’s not. It’s that she’s smart and incredibly self-centered but is doing basically nothing with it apart from self-discovery, getting your attention, and trying to impose her moral framework (which she doesn’t even fully believe herself btw) onto other people who are trying their best to do stuff.
It’s just wasting everyone’s time, she doesn’t deserve the respect you are giving her and she isn’t that important in the grand scheme of things, and I’m pretty sure she knows this and it’s actually why she’s doing it all.
Yes, that’s an ad hominem. But what else can you do in this situation? ‘Content-free slurs’ were designed for this exact reason!
I recommend that people not spend their time continuing to engage with someone who’s behavior is difficult to distinguish from malicious trolling. There are better sources of useful criticism elsewhere in the thread.
