Now I will be rude: fuck off with your "everyone is right and everything has worth" bullshit.

No Ophelia it isn't rude to voice your criticism, what was rude was the way in which you did it. It is whether you know it or not, possible to tell someone you dislike their writing without being an ass about it. Although you encouraged her to try again, what was said before this advice made it sound very half-hearted and sarcastic.
