Taken as a purely factual statement, (1) appears to be simply false for some people.

Much more importantly, though... do you not see the connotation of unpleasant, uncareful other-optimizing, and frequently contempt, in all those statements and what you've said to Alicorn, or do you think it's correct to use that connotation, or that it doesn't matter and people are wrong to care, or what?
