Someone that says : my character wouldnt be sharing gold.
Then I say : but who made that character hmm ?
You have imagination. Use it to justify not being an ass to your party.
That’s his whole point, you just shoehorned a third of the alignment system out of your sessions with that one move. If that’s what you and your players want then that’s fine, but it’s certainly not better like you seem to think.
If theres going to be a party then the players are responsible for coming up with a justification why their character would agree to work together with the rest of the party. I will always welcome even evil characters if and only if their player can actually show that they are capable of the necessary teamwork. The evil guy helping good guys begrudginly because they get something out of it is a classic trope and that’s all fine.
Meanwhile, if your alignment is the classic Chaotic Stupid and you go full murderhobo and backstabber, why would the rest of the part ever tolerate that? They’ll turn up face downwards in the nearest ditch and the player can try coming up with a new character that actually wants to be in the party.

You can steal cars and still take care of family. Learn from Mr Fast. Or is he Furious? I always forget.
I think he is angrily rapid. Something like that.
Depends if you steal from your family I guess.
Sure, but the equivalent here would be stealing the cars from your family. Just no.

Oh yeah, players and DM love chaotic evil characters. Because they are always so fun to have around.
