Most Catholics still voluntarily observe the Fast and Abstinence on ALL Fridays of the year.

I know very few Catholics who are aware that Friday abstinence is still required. I didn't know until a few years ago when I read it on FR. This is a good one to keep spreading the word about.

Attributing bad motives to others.... Has this person ever stated that he/she goes to a SSPX chapel?

You are responding to a post directed to another and that post had nothing in it about the motives of the person to whom the post was directed
