That you're not. You just spend a lot of time reading a blogger you dislike.

The root cause of most animosity is jealousy

I think a citation is needed for that.

A lot of people hate their boss, not out of jealousy but out of an opinion that their boss is incompetent.

Except that OMAAT is nobody's boss and nobody is obligated to stick around. So if they keep sticking around for the sole purpose of generating hatred, then yes, probably jealousy.

Babies annoy me. But Im not jealous of them. Donald Trump annoys me - I thank god I am not like him. Lazy flight attendants annoy me. Not jealous.

I actually cant think of a single person or thing that I feel animosity toward of whom/which I am jealous.

YMMV.

People who read OMAAT for the purpose of criticizing it when they publish something dishonest are no more jealous of Lucky than restaurant/food critics are jealous of a chef's cooking.

Shaking my head of disbelief*

yes we can agree he might be out of touch with reality but he's still on a personal journey of development
that of course is priceless and cant be put in value on a credit card
yet only in monetary gain in affiliate links

i am glad though that after reading adam1222 and kokonutz blogs that there are still sane and critical minds untouched by hard credit shilling

I've read a lot of comments in this thread and a lot of it is just funny and hilarious by the same usual characters, who really take the time to analyze every post he writes. My question is, why bother spending so much time over there. At the end of the day, you all spend so much time on his blog because you enjoy his content, or you're just jealous and trying to find something, anything, to criticize him on.

It is entirely possible to enjoy some content while criticizing the other less-than-honest content.
