So a couple of people on a Discord serve said that and you extrapolate it to the entire internet?

Let's take an informal poll. Who here would criticize someone who offered to buy a homeless person a meal? Please speak up.

Yeah, I don't think I've seen anything that aggressive about it outside the Discord server, and it's the only one that really sticks in memory, but I've also seen a few comments in threads here and there sharing the sentiment less aggressively.

But it's also worth noting that any time you talk about doing something selfless, there will be people trying to poke holes to diminish it.
