Sounds like a shitty gaslight attempt
It’s a screenshot of a snippet of the article without any link?
Why would I seek out a most likely paywalled article from a media company I fucking hate to give them clicks and read about how I’m a piece of shit for not having a better 401k?
Perhaps because you were curious to find if a thing is true or not?
Perhaps because you wonder if the headline matches the content? (and in this case, it does not)
Do you ingest and internalize any clickbait headline that matches your view of the world?
Mate you could have just provided the link the first time. There's no need to be a dick about it. Someone didn't see the li K elsewhere in the thread, is a little copy-paste really going to ruin your day? If you're not going to be polite or helpful, try just not saying anything at all. We don't need this sort of reddit-toxicity over here; no one appreciates it and no one will think better of you because of it.
Again, why would I give clicks to a media company I fucking hate to tell me that I’m a piece of shit? Searching through the thread is still seeking it out.
You need to go touch some grass
Yeah probably
I hardly downvote, but I've begun doing so on every comment that obviously didn't read the article.
