If you post an argument online, and the only opposition you get is braindead arguments and insults, does it confirm you were right? Or is it just self-selection of those who argue online?

This is a pattern I see a lot: people getting worked up about a specific headline or a specific sentence, and locking on that instead of trying to consider the underlying reasoning or the more general point

It helps if you spell out the underlying reasoning and the more general point explicitly? I don't see anything that survives the simple reply "The real universe is low-entropy in a highly structured way and No-Free-Lunch is about a structureless max-entropy distribution."
