Oof, I really struck a nerve huh?

I'm sure you're smart enough to know you shouldn't try to hurt people's feelings just because they believe and idea that you don't believe.

No, you're misreading the tone here. It's more gentle paternal nudging.

Don't let confirmation bias mislead you into a lonely life, especially not based on a study on somecollege students.

I know it's more comforting to believe real friendships exist only in fiction rather than admit you haven't experienced it, but in the long run, this belief only hurts you.

Paternalism in all of its forms is bad on face. You clearly got triggered hard by these comments.
I suspect this may be projection.

Based on your comments, maybe some paternal advice wouldn't go astray.
