Is this normal? Am i overreacting?

Looking for some honest opinions here. I am a publishing poet and always making submissions. I do not expect to make money.

I found this post to be… unnecessarily abrasive? This is not a paying publication. Being told “poetry is priceless but publishing is not”, and essentially being told artists work isn’t worth money but publishing is really upset me.

I’ve been stewing on it all day, and I guess I’m looking for perspective if I am overreacting. I’m sure publishing IS a lot of work, but the tone of this feels like it negates the very real work artists do. I generally do not make paid submissions unless it is a contest, but is a reading fee really the norm for small pubs that are not a paying market?
