Yes. History is irrelevant.
That might not have been your intent, but that is precisely what you’ve done this entire thread. As @wsmcneil noted above, you’re basically equated your opinion with facts, and many people’s facts with opinions.
You called yourself a trolley, BTW. None of what was posted attributed monsterdom to you, merely that you’re unwilling to listen to others.
[ETA] As for the Guardian article, it is basically just about digital readership and more recent readership, and says little about the golden age of comics. It even ignores how women were central to the popularity of successful comics like the Sandman. Just a note, the world of comics didn’t begin in 2000.
