Reply to comment by Ambitious-Ad6900 in [OC] Annual Finances of a Millennial Saving Up for a House (made with SankeyMATIC) by justlikeofficespace

If you read further down you would’ve seen that I conceded there being value to the post. With that being said I don’t regret the way I approached it. My critiques were fair and I stand by them.

And I’m not jealous of anything he has to be proud of. To be frank I’m younger and earn more. I’m simply pointing out that he essentially posted a visualization of his personal privilege, which, again, I have already conceded may be valuable info to some so that they can understand why others have so much more saved than they do.

I wasn’t being hostile, I was genuinely questioning OP’s intent, because it didn’t seem very positive to me. I liked his response though, and we’ve made peace. You can chill

ETA: and about the culture thing—I have absolutely nothing against living with your parents. I wish I could. I have something against earning an above average salary and not contributing. Without an explanation for that it’s an objectively a bad look. I stand by that.

Well the language you chose is hostile, I stand by my critique of your response. You have no right to question people the way you did just because you have it harder.

I have no right to question people who post their data to a public subreddit? Hard disagree lmao

You really don't. They posted the data they chose to make public, you have no right to question what you questioned. It is none of your business if they contribute or not to their parents or if they are wealthy, let alone in the hostile way you did it.

Again, hard disagree. If you don’t want people to question the details of your finances don’t post the details of your finances. If you’d simply said “he isn’t obligated to respond” I’d agree, but to act like asking the question was out of line is frankly ridiculous

You can disagree as hard as you can, but didagreeing hardly does not make you any less rude nor correct.

And likewise you stating that I have no right repeatedly will not make that true.

Are you one of OP’s parents or something? He wasn’t even offended by my question, why are you so up in arms about it?
