No, because it is exactly the impression that anyone who has understood a German Idealist would recognise in someone who has read them and the language they would use in explaining their experience of their understanding.
Your 'anger' is that you disagree with her conclusions and you're 'angry' that someone would then 'commit' their life to explicating their 'path' in a way that you fundamentally disagree with.
This is not to say that I do not fundamentally disagree with BB's conclusions but that your approach to counter her is fundamentally flawed in this respect.

Cooeee MrArising would you assess my paper for my Cambridge philosophy exam ?
It is based on Hegel; here goes :
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
Old Mother Nature's recipes
That brings the bare necessities of life
Wherever I wander, wherever I roam
I couldn't be fonder of my big home
The bees are buzzin' in the tree
To make some honey just for me
When you look under the rocks and plants
And take a glance at the fancy ants
Then maybe try a few
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
That's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life
Now when you pick a pawpaw
Or a prickly pear
And you p**** a raw paw
Next time beware
Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw
When you pick a pear
Try to use the claw
But you don't need to use the claw
When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw
Have I given you a clue ?
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!
So just try and relax, yeah cool it
Fall apart in my backyard
'Cause let me tell you something little britches
If you act like that bee acts, uh uh
You're working too hard
And don't spend your time lookin' around
For something you want that can't be found
When you find out you can live without it
And go along not thinkin' about it
I'll tell you something true
The bare necessities of life will come to you
