Speaking only for myself and the feelings this thread brought up for me, I can honestly say it has nothing to do with contributions or money. I am a contributor, yet I was/am offended.

It has more to do with exclusion, secrecy, and entitlement issues from my past, as well as equality and matters of respect in the here and now.

Victims of abuse, physical, sexual, verbal, domestic, whatever, frequently experience feelings of shame, guilt, isolation, powerlessness, embarrassment, and inadequacy. And that is what it stirred up in me.

I know this is my own stuff. I own it fair and square. If I didn't have issues like this, I wouldn't be seeking support from a mental health forum in the first place.
