Nothing to do with Purgatory...
(*sigh*) Please tell me you’re joking?
Am I the only one who sees the irony of a “once-saved-always-saved”, “sola Scriptura”, “sola fide” believer trying to rebuke people for “following the traditions of men”?
If you’d be so kind as to show me where any of the above are taught (chapter and verse, please) in Holy Scripture, then I might be a bit more inclined to take your argument seriously.
By the way... a word to the wise: if you’re going to attack a Catholic doctrine, it’s really best to attack the ACTUAL doctrine, rather than a caricature/straw-man. To wit: Purgatory is only relevant to those who are SAVED... not to the damned. When one dies, there are only two possible final outcomes: Heaven (possibly with purification in Purgatory, first, if attachment to sin or temporal punishment is still in need of being removed), or hell.
Let me say that again, clearly: PURGATORY IS NOT A REPLACEMENT FOR HELL. I assure you (and anyone intellectually honest enough to check the Catechism of the Catholic Church can confirm this, easily), the Catholic Church teaches the grim reality of Hell, and She always has. Those who are damned (i.e. who die, unrepentant, in a state of mortal sin) do not go to Purgatory; they go straight (and irrevocably) to hell.
