I understand it perfectly.

They send me videos of professors criticizing Fyodor Dostoyevsky. Which is a subtle way of saying that if Dostoevsky was bad, I, a guy who writes poems and sayings, am nobody.

Another thing they do to me a lot is to tell me "I write too".

Which is the same as if someone says to you "I play the piano too". Which is as ridiculous as saying to Michael Jordan "I play basketball too".

It's people's ego, so don't worry, you're on the right track.
