There’s a conundrum that economists and political strategists have been chewing on for more than a year: The economy is good, but Americans say it’s lousy.
Don’t put words into my mouth and then get pissy because you don’t like them. Those are your words, not mine. You’re making yourself into a victim.
However I don’t for one second believe you got close enough to this stranger to evaluate whether her bag was real or fake (“I own shares in Gucci so I know a knockoff from an original” - best joke I’ve heard all week!). And you still have no way to know whether that bag was a present, or bought second hand, or anything else.
You could have said something like, “Oh, y’all are right, I let my privilege blind me and I probably shouldn’t have judged that stranger so quickly, because everyone has their own unique situation.” But instead, you’re just defending your initial prejudice, doubling down on it with “I own shares in Gucci!”
It’s a bad look. You should reevaluate your stance.

Someone calls out you for not seeing past your privilege and you respond with childish name calling then tell them to shove it.
You’ve shown what kind of person you are and how far your discussion capabilities go.
