If you don't see the arrogance in telling someone talking about the tools of their trade to consider instead downgrading and donating to food banks, as if the two are mutually exclusive, or one topic begat the other: then there was never much of a conversation to be had.
You're free to martyr yourself though. Act like I'm just tearing you down. Not addressing anything you've said in these comments.

Maybe in a moment of introspection you might realize that no one would tear you down for suggesting food banks exist, and maybe, juuuuuust maybe you did something wrong when you:
- Tried to make it about choosing between spending money on tools and donating to food banks, as if the two are mutually exclusive.
- Made assumptions about a complete stranger's donation habits based on a monitor purchase and telling you not to make a tooling choice a morality play...
- Claimed that people talking about a monitor are actually saying they spend all their money on themselves.
Of course, it'll be easier to not do any of that and go on thinking that there's this weird Ghanian guy who hates food banks and spends all his money on himself because he likes the Apple Pro Display XDR.
