Judge me for leaving the group chat after the oil pitch?

A college friend started selling drops. First it was a story. Then a voice note. Then a calendar invite called 'abundance hour.' I muted. They unmuted me in a side chat with three other people from the dorm and said I was 'blocking blessings.'

I left the main group. I sent a private text: I love you, I will not buy this, please do not put me in a funnel. They posted a screenshot of my text, cropped to look colder, in the remaining chat.

Two people DM'd me that I was harsh. I have not gone back.

Their side

They would say they were sharing something that helped them, that leaving a ten-year chat over a product is a breakup, and that the crop was to spare me, not to frame me.

Ask: Is leaving after a pitch a boundary, or did I torch a dorm over drops?
