EA community managers problem?

@PsubondI picked the wrong word using “rude”. The vast majority of posts I see are from frustrated players, many of whom now have developed a negative state of mind towards Battlefield 2042 and EA/DICE. But there is a difference between being negative and being rude. My point was to say that as a community manager, if you can’t handle that many people have a negative state of mind as mentioned, then I think you have the wrong job. It’s like when customers phone to a call centre with a specific problem and are frustrated, some even angry. Customer service reps need to be prepared to handle such calls because it’s part of the job. (and of course they are trained for it). You can’t just throw your arms into the air and say, “Hey, I ain’t dealing with these people ‘cause they are being negative”.
I wouldn't go over to Reddit either. Too toxic.
