This statement is evil.
This sounds very Ayn Randish ;) I agree that nobody should try to guilt you into wanting less. But I would rather discuss the personal perspective, not the forces from others.

I mean, it IS evil. The very statement is soul crushing. The inevitable conclusion from fallowing that train of thought is world destruction.
As in, humans are bad for the environment, conclusion, we should kill all the humans to save the environment. (Ignoring that humans can also be good for the environment)
The only proper way, if there is something that is necessary for life, is to make it as freely available to everyone.
To say that someone shouldn't have something because there are more needy people ... it destroys the efforts of those that would make it, get it made, get its price down...
The statement should be, lets work out how to make more.
not, lets hold ourselves back because someone might need it more.
(then we could get into the conflicts of scarcity vs abundance mindset.)
