Yeah, you can't. My point was just to remind people of what Christ actually said. Most people get the "but my pastor told me" version just like most people get the fake news version of world events.
In Matthew 19:21 Christ tells told a rich young ruler to sell his possessions, but this was a specific command for that specific man whose wealth had become his idol.
Following Christ isn't about performing an art of poverty, but using what God provides to serve His kingdom effectively. We are to use resources strategically for His glory.
Even the apostles kept their fishing boats and tools. Also consider Luke 8:1-3, where wealthy women supported Christ's ministry financially. Or Acts 4:34-35, where believers sold property not for universal poverty but to meet specific needs within the body. Even Paul continued his tentmaking trade (Acts 18:3) to support himself while ministering.
It's about stewardship, and using whatever tools God provides to advance His kingdom. Your computer may be your modern-day fishing boat, capable of reaching thousands with truth.
Yeah, we can mental gymnastics the bible just like we can with Q. The main difference being that disinformation was not necessary with what Jesus said. Maybe think about that deeply for a while. By the way I am not judging anyone by pointing out the unpopular truth of what Jesus plainly said which is in red letters in most bibles. Try not to get offended If you really believe he is God and your main priority in life is truth.
There's only one scale that matters to me:
[most evil (lucifer)]-------------------|-------------------[most good (christ)]\ aim here /Christ tells us leave everything and to give all our possessions to the to the poor....

How can I fight a war on the digital battlefield if I give it all away?

Jesus did not tell Us He told him to give all. Like most unlearned you pick a verse and change the wording to match what you want it to say.
