If I had written "Why did you do that?!" instead of "What the fuck.", do you think I would have had my Phabricator account disabled for a week?
No, but asking "are you for real?" would have been similarly problematic in my view. The distinction hinges on whether you are expressing bafflement or scandal.
I don't think it's bad to be critical, but in my opinion the way you go about it is acutely and unnecessarily painful sometimes, and leads to burnout rather than understanding.
