As a general rule, articles should not be crossposted to or from other music groups. The point of having the rec.music.
Music is a very broad topic, and also one where opinions vary greatly and emotions can run high.
Learn to respect others' opinions, and do not force your opinion on others. People who post deliberately provoking and generally thoughtless articles should be ignored. If you do feel a reply is necessary, use e-mail in the first instance. Public follow-ups to such articles should be avoided. In any instance, do not crosspost replies to any groups other than those to which the article is directly and indisputably relevant.
