Things like white privilege, male privilege, heterosexual privilege, you get the idea.

What you are talking about, if it even exists, is a rounding error compared to the massive good fortune relative to the entire rest of the human race that has ever lived, of being born in the West in the late 20th/21st century.

Perhaps you can see that dropping a few hundred grand on a hobby makes the speaker incredibly more privileged even within this already privileged group, and gender is absolutely nothing to do with (as the majority of homeless, etc, happen to be men, where's the white male heterosexual privilege there? Oops your whole model of the world just imploded, sorry 'bout that).

I can't tell if you're trolling or not. I tried to respond to you in what I believe was a mature and respectful way.

You've responded with a breathtaking amount of immaturity. And completely ignored any of the points I made. Perhaps one day you'll be more open to hearing and responding to what I wrote to you. Maybe that day won't come. Either way I wish you well.

To a post displaying a breathtaking amount of naivety. I didn't ignore your points, they are, paraphrasing Feynmann, "not even wrong". And I am not sure what "troll" even means these days, it seems to be a catch-all term for "someone on the Internet who isn't a part of my echo chamber".

Likewise, I wish you well, and I hope that one day you will come around to what I wrote.
