Saying check your privilege is worthless. It doesn't fix anything. It just puts guilt on the people who made the correct decisions, and in fact implies that we benefited through no action of our own. It denigrates the efforts of those who did work for things and did make it. So in that sense, I think it is harmful.
Well by that analogy the level 50 is a dirty RMT who cannot play his own class well and gets booted from groups because he keeps training the group and nobody likes him.
Nobody I work with would ever say something like "we've got it pretty good don't we bud" thats hilarious.
Khane what income bracket are you in that you think that just because we have done well for ourselves we sit around patting ourselves on the back?
The post you quoted was me trying to understand your definition. But you said I had used this offensive "check your privelege" language elsewhere. So where is that?
I highly doubt that. Combined we make as much as Cad probably.
More apt analogy is that Wrath of the Rich King (harhar) was just released and the Poor's still only have access to vanilla.
Yeah but as the level 1s are leveling up the 50s are locking down all the spawns and loot.
Where is that, indeed.
I tried to have this argument in some other thread. And got the same response as you. Almost word for word. We should go drink a beer sometime if you're in NJ.
Yes you two educated white men can sit in a bar in the northeast and drink beers and wonder why nobody understands that you love the poors and the underprivileged so much. That sounds like a HOOT.
If you are basing it off that statement we are a little higher since she is doing both NC and CA and she is a nurse practitioner (being pedantic because she is about the title). We will pull $250k this next year.
It doesn't even matter, I make considerably more but honestly, whats that matter? My investment account builds up a little faster. So what.
Do you count military time? Do you count the time we lived in a van before I was abandoned and went to a no kidding "orphanage"?
Yea uhh.... exactly. I was saying "This shit exists... why are you denying it?" and then I asked a few questions. That's what sets you off? That's the level of conversation that makes you want to scream about privelege. You even quoted me saying I didn't care.
