An Example of TRULY Annoying People

My usual late night random facebooking led me to this unusual set of comments from some weird people. ok, so weird is a broad definition. you may find a whole set of adjectives to describe these people. You know how facebook has become the new online shopping zone? yeah, so i was looking at a picture of a seller selling authentic Prada satchel for Rp. 20.500.000. Steep price, yeah, but for those who can afford it, great! for those who happen to earn more than required, why not? right? not quite so, for some of these people, apparently. Check out some pictures below. (name and picture are obscured to hide their identity and for me to remain decent in blog-posting)

1.

Translated as : rather than purchasing a bag for that price, i'd rather go for umroh or "berkurban" to acquire some blessings. dont search for materialistic things but prioritize your fate at the end of your life. do some charity with the money.

2.

Translated as: better feed orphans and roadside beggars rather than making this purchase. the bag is not seen at the end but your right-doings will.

3.

Translated as: a bag cannot be carried when you die. better provide for the needy for blessings.

Now of course, there are a lot more people with similar comments but I'd rather stay ethical (although I'm pretty sure I've gone somewhat ahead of it)

Anyway, reading these made me pretty mad. How are some people truly superficial? In my opinion, these are examples of people trying to force their beliefs to others.

Point one. What people do with their own hard-earned money is up to them, yes? whether it goes for medicals, charity, luxury, or others. why do people decide what's to be done with other's income?

point two. if they can't afford it, they can go get something else they can afford. no one's forcing them to buy it.

point three. exposing blatantly that you'd rather do charity rather than anything else shows that you do charity for fame and attention instead of wanting to help. show off, kiss-as, fake good-doer. blah.

point four. sure, judge people all you want. its a free country. just dont post them on public forums. you are rude and obnoxious.

forgive my ranting, readers. I am getting a little antsie-pantsie reading about what people do on social medias lately. They forget the key point: be ethical.

cheers!
