I don’t understand this 200K thing…

Are you some sort of bad person for making what the market pays you?

It reeks of jealousy and brazen callousness because someone has secured compensation outside their reach or imagination.

I don’t get it.

200k is an arbitrary number but the general point is that someone making multiples of the median household income with high future prospects does not know the kind of struggle faced by many people and therefore does not deserve sympathy.
