That argument is incredibly disrespectful of OP. You should be ashamed.
OP does not have any sort of responsibility to the rest of society, at least not with respect to "pulling a Luigi".
OP is not an "island", but their dependency connections to the rest of society do not create this sort of obligation to society.
At the same time, OP should be encouraged to ask for help, ask for what they need to improve their life. And that goes for the rest of society as well.
Asking for help is not disrespectful of the person being asked. OP's indignant response to having merely been asked is deeply offensive.
Its the exact same thing I tell every libertarian asshole. You are all chained dogs who think you are lone wolves, can't survive without whatever master you serve and bark at the rest of us to "do better".
You told OP you think less of them for the post but call me disrespectful. Get fucked.
Correct. Your "no man is an island" arguments imply OP has some obligation of performance. OP has no such obligation. OP is not an undue burden on society. No quid pro quo is required or even expected. The benefits OP has received from society do not create the obligations you imply.
OP is free to say no to this and any request they do not wish to fulfill. Your "island" arguments imply otherwise. Your arguments suggest OP owes something that they certainly do not. Yes, you are being unduly disrespectful of OP.
Your suggestion that they haven't given back enough is galling. The problematic part of OP's narration begins when OP takes personal offense at having been asked for help, not the fact that they have been helped themselves, nor that they can't or won't "help" now.
