If you had posted this in the first place it would have been better. Better yet would be to drop provocations like "false narrative", which implies something sinister, and just focus on contributing correct, interesting information about balloons (or whatever the topic is that you know about).
It's too easy to underestimate the impact of putdowns in internet comments by 10x, if not more—impact on the readers, on other commenters, on the site as a whole, and (if they see it) on the author or creator. When you* post putdowns it usually feels innocuous, as if you're just adding a little extra emphasis, but to the reader it often comes across as much larger than the rest of the comment put together—especially when there isn't much other information.
* I don't mean you personally of course—I mean all of us.
