Never said you can just willy nilly dance, but you won't be walking hungry, even if you might need to get out your comfort zone and god forbid work in PHP for a few months.
Compare that to people who work minimum wage, have no education and are barely keeping things together- them loosing a job and You loosing a job is just worlds apart of a difference

Yeah, I still don't agree with this. Skills become irrelevant, worker burnout and churn in tech is high, geocentralization and the requirement to move are also detrimental, the requirement to live in vastly expensive cities with reasonable commutes generally puts a higher risk level on any savings, and lastly, not all tech workers are married to other high income earners, which I feel like these privilege statements are designed to ignore.
