    Yes but a lot of people seem to think that if you have less obstacles in your way that means that no one should be concerned about the obstacles that still are in your way.

    Just because life is theoretically more difficult for one class of person does not mean that another class of person cannot be allowed to also experience difficulties.

    People who were not privileged use it as a weapon to hit everyone else over the head, even when it’s inappropriate. Especially when it’s inappropriate.

      I think it’s important to state that isn’t not people who aren’t privileged in general that do this but a very small minority. And its often people who are actually very privileged that try to leverage the one aspect in which they’re not, that do this.

      Please remember that the nature of the internet means you see the loud and angry people (as well as trolls) what more often than anyone else.
