I'm by no means saying that everyone should get a trophy for trying their best. And the crux of it really isn't even that he should be nicer... but he should at least be constructive. This is literally "we have created a minefield, and you stepped on mine, thus you are a fucking idiot. This is all your fault, and I'm going to yell loud enough and long enough that we never have to think about why its a minefield in the first place."
