    Have people always made it their business what other people spend their money on or is this a new thing? I seriously don’t remember so many being people being so butthurt over what others do.

      Yes, this has happened pretty much any time Apple released a new expensive toy.

      People do it literally every day. That is half of politics.

      But also, the main concern with this I think is people driving and crossing traffic wearing them… Which is why there’s so much hubbub

      People get butthurt over things others do that don’t affect them all the time.

      People also get buttgurt over things others do that indirectly affect them or violate their ethical principles.

      Sometimes it’s hard to tell them apart and sometimes there’s a bit of overlap when worldviews conflict.

      We live in a society.
