Took some googling but found the actual book the quote is from.

Surprisingly high rating

I am of a firm belief that what words we use do matter a lot and shapes our perception of the world but this is some outlandish shit

Edit: Link to book on drive

I believe the reason for that high rating is a form of selection bias maybe? Like if you go to IMDb you will see that live performances have a very high rating and I think is that you only gonna watch and rate if you are already fan of the band. In this case normal people are not gonna buy and read this book, only people who already agree with this nonsense.
