(I know this is ground is very well trodden so I'll keep it short & sweet and mainly as a point to ponder rather than as a discussion starter.)
I can't guess as to the state of mind of the monk responsible for calling our hooded friend but I would hope it's for slightly more than just being unpopular.
I'd suggest noting the subtle difference between something you don't agree with and something you didn't need to hear.
Anyway... just a thought...
Thank you for your candle lighting time...
