You have no right to tell a complete stranger "how you spend money is wrong you need to reevaluate it".

well actually i live in america and it's one of the main rights i am given...second only to my gun.

Freedom of speech protects you from the government, not from being a douche to strangers.

given recent events, that's an insensitive comment. And just as you had the right to "say" your comment, I have the right to say this.

you are absolutely right! i am not here to take your freedoms away like other people, just to state i do!

lol you are making this into a way bigger deal than it is...if my single post on an online gaming forum about my opinion "takes your freedoms away" I don't know what to tell you bro. I am kind of surprised about this power I suddenly have. To just post words and take away other's rights. My bad I didn't know I had such a power.

Pretty sure I was just advocating to be understanding to each other and understand that people choose to spend their money many different ways so don't choose to be rude and criticize a total stranger about how they spend their money. It'd be like if you went into a store IRL to buy...I dont know, say this game! FFXIV! and some other customer walks up to you like "you're going to buy THAT?" then starts laughing hysterically and claiming how ridiculous you are for wasting your money on it.

well i did quote you word for word which you said *you have no right* which you are wrong.

i mean you are right you don't have that power, which is why i stated you were wrong.

i am not arguing if something is rude or insensitive just that i have that right.

Again, they are just words, so yes you are making a huge deal out of nothing lol

People say "you have no right" all the time when dealing with situations where people are crossing the line into doing things that are very rude albeit not against the law. So in the end it is a figure of speech and just my opinion.

and you are completely allowed to tell everyone your opinion, but your opinion is factually wrong.

You also used the first amendment as the basis for your statement which is factually incorrect. The first amendment states the government can't stop you from saying something it doesn't like, it says nothing about what an individual is or is not allowed to do. The Bill of Rights is there to limit the government, its not there to limit or grant powers to the people.

But you are right in that you can tell someone what to do or what to say. That person, and everyone else that hears you, is also free to not listen or say that you're being rude. Just because you're free to say what you want does not mean you're free from the consequences of saying what you want.
