Trouble is opinions can take on a life of their own. Not everyone is sensible enough to read opinions as just that. A lot of these articles are written with a tone of authority; espessially the ones from data scienctists. Discussion is fine, but bear in mind that its adding to a lot of unecessary noise.

I think the best way is to attack the argument itself, not where it is coming from. If the discourse become authoritative and biased, we shut it, disregard it pointing out the flaws. But we have to be careful not to be authoritative ourselves when we don't even give the chance for the writer to be wrong because he lacks the right credentials.
