Obviously this is a real and difficult neuro/psych issue to deal with, and I know some people who probably suffer (but aren't formally diagnosed). Heck, I've been prone to letting certain negative comments send me on a spiral briefly myself.
Unfortunately like a lot of genuine neuro issues, this one seems like a really difficult one for typicals to interact with. Because there are people who react badly to genuine critiques, especially in regard to politics, religion, and tradition. Some of them probably are suffering from RSD but a lot aren't.
When I think of RSD, I don’t necessarily think of people reacting badly externally but instead internalizing it. The “dysphoria” part implies it makes the person feel like shit - nothing about acting or lashing out.
