Tbh your second paragraph being longer and starting with "In general I don't agree with the Rogan hate" makes it sound very much NOT like a caveat but rather the main point of your comment.

Now this "we-found-an-enemy flag" defense you've brought up is just... weird. Someone disagrees with a falacious point that you tried to make, and so you accuse them of being reductionistic and making ad hominem attacks. That's just not what happened dude. If you want to argue your point, do it, but as a matter of fact you clearly indicated that you're okay with what little push back he does give, whereas you did not make it clear that you think him being easily misled is a bad thing.

I don't mean for this to sound rude, but I think that you should work better on articulating the points you're trying to make, and taking it less personally/antagonistically when someone disagrees with you.

I still don't get this. Someone disagreed with a fallacious point that I didn't make, and I pointed out that I didn't make it. Surely that should be allowed.

Yeah, maybe so, this one is valid I think.
