Insult, no elaboration. Classic. Nah I think he's pretty spot on. If you're going to say something about it then back up your argument.

Lemmy is open sourced, it doesn't matter what META does to their code, they can not do jack shit to the fediverse as a whole. Is that better?

Wasn't referring to what Meta could do or even necessarily that there's an issue with Lemmy's software. More that there's a bunch of servers with various configurations without resources dedicated to intrusion detection, mitigation or reporting. If something did happen at a server level to a hobbyist instance there's no reason to believe users or maybe even the persons running the instance would know about it.
