It is if you don't believe in free will, and as long as we're talking physics, there is zero evidence of free will existing.
In that context being mad at someone is only useful in so far as it influences future behaviour. In this case, it won't, because she's not actually angry in a way that anyone could use to help guide their own behaviour. What message do I take from her distracted rant? That Brian Greene is a self serving dingus? That self serving dinguses exist in every field? That every single string theory physicist is a lying asshole?
It's ironic that she's complaining about people making science education hard when she's actively distracting herself from making a more cohesive argument by playing a pointless video game.
