The thread subject makes it easy enough to ignore for you, so just
ignore it.  If others want to read it, let them.

I'm getting good at ignoring rude remarks, but not everybody else is.
So if you feel the need to make such a point, make it in private or just
let it go.  Clearly, a more efficient use of your time is to skip such
remarks completely.
