To me it does not sound like Truncated is jealous, it sounds like she has had a bad experience or two in academic discussions and is upset by the way people present their knowledge of certain things as a way to say that they are better than others. In my experience, these "academics" soon find they have few people who wish to listen to them, or people who they view as worthy to listen to them.

Academic discussions are amazing...you just have to find the right people to have them with.
