"If I had a horde of money I'd try to make it an ever bigger horde so I could tell people what to do."

Yes, that exact attitude is the problem with billionaires and why simply being a billionaire is a sign of mental illness, because people without a hording disorder will fuck off long before they get to a billion.

I addressed your strawman claims. I both addressed your argument that "not everyone is altruistic" and expanded on why your anecdote does undermine your argument.

This is just another attempt to not defend a weak argument, which could also be achieved be just not replying. This whole attitude of "I could totally defend my argument, I just don't want to. You need to prove yourself worthy of having me defend it" is not a good look for you or your argument.

If you have a good argument, let your argument stand. When people don't have a good argument they stand on insults.

who is no longer willing to repeat himself by restating the things he already said that were ignored and mischaracterized

So instead of defending their argument they're insulting the people who disagree with them to try to make them go away? That is exactly what I said. If you think the counter argument is invalid to the point that you're not going to address it you could just not reply, it's even easier than trying to insult the person and making your argument look weak as a result.
