Not really, because not everyone that one disagrees with is an asshole.

 It's not a matter of disagreement. It's a matter of producing insulting trash
talk or spamming the group with falsehoods or obviously biased opinions not
recognizing the validity of the opinions of COLA denizens.

Sure, but that statement is extremely broad in what a reader can choose to claim to justify their coping behavior, and becomes problematic unto itself:  its a means to make an easy/lazy excuse for one's coping.
People aren't perfect or infallible:  COLA denizens have their times of trash talking, of making falsehoods, and of biased opinions.

Which is what the term "shoot the messenger" illustrates:  it describes
a hypocritical reaction to receiving news that one didn't like.  Even
though the messenger isn't responsible for what the news was:  shooting
the messenger is a very poor means of coping with being informed of the
reality which one did not like.

 There's no way of shooting the messenger online. Sad.

Sure, which is why I note that a poster is 100% responsible for their own online behavior and credibility:  they can't try to blame anyone other than themselves for their own actions.

Nevertheless, point taken: reality includes that there's some people who
insist on being assholes, too.  Fortunately, most people can separate
the message from the messenger.

 When a messenger frequently posts crap messages, one tends to believe the
messenger is crap as well.

Depends on what the 'crap' really is, because objective facts don't become untrue just because they're unpopular, although this also gets down further into the question of topical relevancy too, for something also needs to be relevant to the topic at hand.
