Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.
The “issue”, here, is anti-Catholic protestants and former Catholics with a grudge, swarming a thread to cast unmerited insults onto Catholics, their faith and practices (of which they are vastly ignorant), got some push back for it instead of hand holding, and I assume shall be permitted to do so without effect.
A testimony experience of a well formed, but former, protestant to a current one is not “mind reading”. It’s a fact.
