      I see, so which country do you live in where impoverished people can afford to buy a new phone every few years?

          Oh, so you mean poor people replace their crappy phones that only last a few years when they break.

          And you think they shouldn’t do that.

          Got it.

              You:

              I do give a shit if you buy a new tablet every couple years when the old one works just fine.

              Me:

              Buying a new tablet every couple of years: something poor people notoriously do.

              You:

              Swap tablet for phone, and the answer is yes.

              So it sure sounds like you’re saying that poor people shouldn’t buy a new phone when their shitty phone breaks in a couple of years to me. Because the old one never works just fine on account of it being a shitty phone. Which you should know what with your apparent intimate knowledge of global poverty.

              Weird how your insult doesn’t reflect what you’ve said so far.

              Also, I have not insulted you once. Are you really unable to have a conversation without insulting people? Is this how you talk to people when you’re in the same room with them?
