We cannot continue to go along laying blame at the feet of the smallest proportion of players who, as with the healer roles, have taken a very difficult task upon their shoulders.
No it arrogant and rude to treat dps players like she does. It's toxic, insulting, and makes the game a worse place to be. At best it's anecdotal evidence at worst it's lies and exaggeration. For every dps player you can find not performing well I could find a dozen tanks that don't know their arm from a stick in the ground. They don't know how their skills work, don't tab target, don't recover enmity when lost, lose enmity to scatter spam(a 100 potency skill), don't position mobs properly, and pull with provoke. It is disturbingly rare to find a good tank in this game. Do you know how annoying, frustrating, and not fun it is to get off work at the end of the day sit in a queue for nearly and hour only to get an absolute jerk of a tank like the above poster? And what's worse most of the time the jerks arn't even good tanks.

It gets old seeing someone like that who has barely ever even played a dps with a vendetta on the forums against everyone else spreading toxic sludge into the community, and that said toxic sludge being defended by people like you. Tell me which you think is worse, a tank who has to hit provoke or an extra flash cause a dps pulled, or a person who makes post after post insult vast members of the community, painting with a broad brush, and spreading toxic sludge in the community?
