Because that’s not good for the economy or the housing market. Homeownership is meant to be seen as the ultimate goal in American life (even though it comes with almost as many drawbacks and complications as it does positives, unless you have fuck-you money) and that perception is strictly enforced in society and on the internet. Hence “homeowners” being considered a higher cultural class. If people stop consooming and ably-financed people aren’t buying houses, that’s bad for the machine, and they need to be bullied out of such a mentality.

Not to mention the psychological component where people (especially men) get buttflustered when they see others (especially other men) choosing not to partake in the same trials and tribulations (or, making the same mistakes, depending on how you look at it) that they did, because now they feel their own struggle is invalidated and want to run away from being like they fucked up. They can’t beat you intellectually, so they lash out with the “ur not a man”-isms.
