But she was upset about the negative reaction to her stupidity.
That's a common reaction with many people involved with pseudo-science. Instead of understanding why they are wrong, they get mad at people who criticize them. They usually develop a conspiracy fantasy about those with expertise who are trying to explain the science. And then they justify the conspiracy fantasy...ie, the scientists are just saying that so they can get grant money, the doctors are just saying that so they can get money from the pharmaceutical companies, etc.
Darwin at work. Stupidity is no survival trait
