This Comic Will Forever Change the Way you Look at Privilege

[Romeo.lima333]

62. what i see here in this example is cherry picking, assumptions and extrapolations

i dont believe that schools give completely different levels of education. the cirriculum is relatively standardized. in areas of lower taxes class sizes will be larger but that doesnt mean that the teachers are all burned-out lack-luster lousy teachers dreaming of a way out.

one parent has to work two jobs and still can't provide a comfortable house or good food? i see that but what does that have to do with richards story.the fact that minimum wage needs to be raised seems to have more to do with this than what ever is going on in richard's life.

2 lives are being compared here and the premise seems to be that one is not as legitimate as the other because the other has to work harder than is supposed to.

that being said i believe education should be provided since an educated populace benefits us all but like i said this is a poor example of the negativity of priviledge that those who think priviledge is a bad thing is supposed to represent.
