How privileged are you?

Basically that for anyone in the US.
Worse than that honestly. The folks who actually worry about privledge are invariably. Fairly wealthy usally white people. Actual poor people have actual problems to worry about. The whole concept of "intersectional privledge". Is quite literally rich white kids talking down to poor minorities. It's the new White man's burden and inherently racist.

I have no dispute on that. I mean, let’s be honest, I am from an upper middle class white family with aristocratic pretensions, I carry a lot of debt because of who I am, but that’s basically it. I live in a 2,448 sq ft New England Farmhouse with a 40x30 barn, I drive a Lexus to work, I just rode first class sleeper on a vacation to NOLA and back, I am in a first class seat on an Acela Express as I write this, enjoying complementary bourbon. Do I share the house with my sister and her husband? Yes, but I also have an indoor jacuzzi.

The idea I have somehow suffered under intersectionality is a joke. Oh no, I am only as well off as a girl from a white family grossing 40k a year instead of 130k a year! Woe is me!

That’s a joke. I am very well off, and very lucky. That’s a fact.

Ah, another of those oh-so-enlightened SJW-built tools to shame and blame people for things beyond their control.

'Privilege' as a concept is just the SJWs twisting the concepts of luck and fortune into a weapon for their crusade.

I think that rather like in golf the objective of life is to keep your handicap as low as possible.
