The more appropriate summary is that I don’t need people who can’t take care of themselves lecture me about taking care of others. You’ll do more good in the long run tackling your own problems.

What you don’t get is:

Given the same conditions, some people have more obstacles put in their way than others.

Saying „I can look after myself“ from a position of privilege is easy.

But taking care of yourself AND removing the obstacles for others so they have the same chance to succeed like you is hard.

And yes: it can make you miserable. Especially when egoistic people keep adding those obstacles again.

No no no, you don’t get it. They get to lecture us but anyone who disagrees doesn’t get to lecture them in response because they’re wrong or lazy. Or something. Probably something.

As I’m sure you can see, we’re clearly dealing with a refined intellect far beyond our ability to understand.

/s, in case it isn’t obvious that I’m mocking this fuckwit
