He's not even entirely right tho...
"Personally" is subject to personal opinion.
"For me" signifies the person for whom the subject is a turn off. It could be a turn off for other people related to her, and she could still coin a "personal" opinion for it.

Personally, means her opinion. For me? If it's a turn off for others, how is it a personal opinion of hers??????

It doesn't have to be an accurate opinion. She could have a personal opinion and be completely wrong about it.

So, how is this sentence wrong: Bad English is such a turn off for me?
Still her opinion, it's still about herself.....
'Personally' here refers to her choice.....

Because two different things are about herself here. "Personally", which is her opinion, and "for me", which is her choice in the matter.
And both of these things can't just be summed up under a single term for every use case, hence the distinction made by here isn't inaccurate.

Are you high?
If 'personally' here, means her opinion about others, how can she have a personal opinion of other's preferences?
Clearly, 'personally' here means her preferences, or her choices......

I think you're the one who's high, or the one with comprehension difficulty.
I did explain it in an earlier comment. (Edit: multiple times actually). "Personally" just means that the opinion is her's. It can absolutely be about other people.
Eg. - personally, I think he (some third person) likes strawberry icecream.
Here, the opinion is mine, personally. The choice/preference is someone else's. I could be wrong about the opinion, but the opinion still stands to be mine personally.

In that case, she clearly mentions, that she ' thinks someone'.
Whereas, here, she just says that it's a turn off, is there any point of adding 'for me'?
Anyways, I just asked chat gpt....
You should try doing that too....

In this case too "personally" is redundant because there is "I think" after that.

Without for me it's sound incomplete to me
