It was common for me to hear journalists and editors at the various media outlets where I worked castigate everyone else as "privileged" and depict themselves as victims of "privilege," all despite being from *very* wealthy families, Ivy-League-educated, etc. Class doesn't count. — PolitiTweet.org

I find the way class is very routinely excluded from discussions of "privilege" to be both faulty and revealing. That's what happens when journalists and pundits from wealthy backgrounds or who have become rich define "privilege": everything gets included except class: — PolitiTweet.org

@StevenJCBuckley Tucker constantly and explicitly acknowledges how wealthy and privileged his childhood was (even though it's nowhere near what internet lore claims; his parents weren't rich: his step-mother was). He doesn't pretend to be oppressed. He acknowledges how he grew up and lives now. — PolitiTweet.org
