So backstory that led to this post was that he recently moved back in with me and my mom, after 7 years going to a different state to be with his lover that I guess ended. Fast forward today 1 month in he’s living with us. He eats most the food, uses up utilities like crazy and he still can’t find a job. I understand finding a job in this time is like needle in a haystack but the week prior before moving in he did nothing but drink, smoke before coming to live with us. Like I wouldn’t be as much of an asshole if he at least Planned it out. He has money for his cigarettes and beer but nothing to help contribute with the bills? So I told him. Either help contribute or move. Then proceeds to say Do you understand the logic in what you’re saying then proceeds to tell me to Stfu then I got Furious and said don’t tell me that in my house. Which resulted in us going back and forth. My mom begging us or me to stop and Just be quiet. I don’t feel sorrow for poking the hornets nest nor making my mom beg and plead like that. I felt good being able.to stand up for myself for once. Now my Mom blames me for it because I should’v waited a couple days before I talked to him For clarity he has picked on me, abused me for most my life growing up so it was either I stay quiet or take the abuse.
That was my mom’s response every time
Further note. I took over the payments, upkeep to the house ever since my grandparents passed away
TLDR: Brother moves back in, told him to help with bills or leave, big fight. Mom blames me for instigating it.

I assume you are also helping with the bills and upkeep of the house? Otherwise it would be a bit odd on your part.
