Precisely.  His argument that malicious software is somehow a bigger threat because LN doesn't have a global consensus mechanism is deeply flawed.  Consensus can do a great many things, but it can't protect you from malware, viruses and other nefarious programs.  It's fair to say there's a steeper learning curve to use LN, so it might be a case where newer users are more susceptible to falling victim to scams in an environment they are likely less familiar with.  But then, that would have also been a valid argument for the earliest adopters of Bitcoin itself to avoid getting involved in the first place.  So it effectively amounts to fear-mongering.  "Don't try the scary new thing".  And it only looks more disingenuous when combined with his views on developers and freedom in general.  The bias is palpable.

If a narcissist isn't happy, they'll try to make everyone around them as unhappy as they are.  That's franky1 in a nutshell.  He's not happy, so he has to make everyone else's life an utter misery by acting like an obsessive-compulsive weirdo all the time.  Even if he had a valid point (and he doesn't), he wouldn't be able to make it without being completely obnoxious, alienating others and isolating himself. 

In a setting where security is achieved through mutual cooperation, you'd think he'd have a better appreciation for learning how to work with others.
