Nevermind that the whole IDEA of loaded questions is that you ask a question and presuppose the framing is accurate in a weasely way. There was no *question* so the linguistic trick of a loaded question cannot even apply.

I made a statement which linguistically a clear thing which can be accepted or rejected by the reader. So your attempt to imply such underhanded tactics is itself underhanded. Which, if you didn't realize, is why you were being unreasonably rude.
