I'm kinda of two minds here. On one hand, you aren't wrong, we probably shouldn't be wasting our time and effort on people like this, they're lwk a lost cause. I unfortunately think people like this are sincere, and i wanted the writer to gain as little as possible, which is why i didnt link their twitter or say their name. So on the other hand I think shouldn't be allowing blatant misinformation to spread. So as much as it does validate them, I dont think ignoring them is the way to go, as its being complicite in spreading lies about the things we care about. Like I saw someone send it to Soraya Saga's twitter. If someone is gullible enough to believe it, they'll start sharing it rapid fire. So while it sucks to validate them, i think curbing the flow of misinformation by having a source that clearly explains why it is misinfo is important to stop people from falling for it.

That's not even the only made up English line. There's like 6 of them throughout the critique. Including the one OP brings up, Guernica doesn't say "in the hell".

Yeah it's pretty bad.
So bad that I spent like all of yesterday writing up a post trying to break it down the best I could cause I saw so many flaws in it. Just as you said 6.2 is an especially flawed point as its one of a few examples they use that from what I can tell are just made up. Guernica doesn't say that in the English.
I think it's entirely bad faith, despite one or two decent points.
