I don't even understand what this criticism means. Does joking about his job title somehow mean he's full of himself? Would it be better if he said "Individual Contributor, Content & Communications at Stripe"? Some people think its arrogant to state your full job title too, like "what gives them the right to presume I care about their job so much?" or something?
IDK, i genuinely don't understand but would like to..
EDIT: or just downvote and move on that's cool too i guess. i have learned my lesson. he is disliked based on instinct and the reasoning is just post-hoc rationalization i guess. maybe asking for a justification in this regime is considered an attack.
The impression is of self importance. The way it is stated it gives the impression he works at a company that allows the internet to exist.
It reminds me of a time when stripe was the underdog against paypal and everyone championed them. Fast forward we have thought leaders from stripe thinking they work at the internet. Even paypal never pretended that. By replacing paypal with stripe did we end up with a worse paypal?
