Why are people so hostile against math blogs?

I was reading adamant's great blog posts when I found multiple comments, some by LGM's, just shitting on him and his blogs for no reason, e.g. by ko_osaga at https://codeforces.com/blog/entry/115164?#comment-1023672, early-morning-dreams under the same post, Xaxixin again under https://codeforces.com/blog/entry/117195?#comment-1036456 and many other examples. I don't understand what these people's intentions are, if it's not your type of posts then why comment? Yes, you might not understand the content, but codeforces is such a big community now that there's definitely many people who are still interested, even if it's remotely related to OI. Back when MiFaFa (jqdai0815) posted his blog on differential equations a few years ago, the community at least respected the post and had (some) constructive discussion below, whereas nowadays it seems that people just shit on others for not much reason. Am I the only one feeling this?

Even worse, there's no block option on CF as far as I know, which means every time I scroll and read I see these people just going "what's the point of learning this".

By the way, if adamant is reading this, I really enjoy reading your posts. As a math enjoyer myself, I love reading your posts since they are usually explained very well. You should try PE830 and PE831 if you haven't, seems like your kind of problem :D
