She feels bitter the reality that instead of seriously taking a look at the content of the message, people typically pick to assault the individual delivering it. This can be viewed as a type of deflection, where the focus is moved away from the essential problems at hand.

She advises individuals to look beyond the messenger and focus on the message itself in order to really understand and resolve the underlying problems.
