If the rich status doesn't give you an advantage or a guarantee of success then it's no priviledge.
Except it does give you an advantage. Not a guarantee, because nothing is a guarantee, but it's pretty damn close. All of the people I know are already on the track to becoming as successful and wealthy as their parents, and if not, they sure aren't gonna be poor.
Provide proof, at this point you're just assuming
As I mentioned before I live in a wealthy community where everyone's education is paid for by their parents (including mine, to a certain extent). None of us are going to squander that opportunity. ALL of us, yes all, are going to college. But since anecdotes won't do (you probably aren't just going to take my word), here's stats released by the federal government that show how a significantly greater percentage of those from higher socioeconomic status get a higher education: https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2019/05/23/feds-release-broader-data-socioeconomic-status-and-college-enrollment-and-completion. 78% of rich people to go college compared to 28% of poor people. That's a 50% difference. That's humungous. In addition to that, of those percentages, "Students from the lowest quintile who attended college were more likely to first pursue an associate degree (42 percent) than a bachelor’s degree (32 percent). Their peers from the wealthiest quintile, however, were much more likely to first seek a four-year degree (78 percent) than a two-year degree (13 percent). Likewise, the percentage of higher-income students who first enrolled at a highly selective college or university (37 percent) easily outpaced that of lower-income students (7 percent)." And you're telling me that everyone has equal opportunities and access. You literally can't rebut after since seeing these stats lol.
In my country studies were already conducted and showed that in general, Homeless people in my country earn more money in a month than teachers
Uhhhh what's your point? This just shows that your teachers are underpaid lmfao. Now try telling me that privilege doesn't exist because homeless people earn the same as some idiot who inherited his father's multimillion-dollar business without doing shit. Also, the world exists outside of your country. Even if your country was completely privilege-free (which it's not bc no such place exists lmao), you can't generalize that to everywhere else.
If everyone goes through the same problems, then no one is priviledged.
Fucking read. They're NOT going through the same problems. People who are richer (and in general have access to a greater education as I pointed out before) have a higher chance of getting a job. A majority of jobs, even entry-level ones, have basic education requirements. According to a study by Georgetown, "35 percent of the job openings will require at least a bachelor's degree, 30 percent of the job openings will require some college or an associate's degree." Evidence right there.
they are wasting money competing with the Joneses, they are wasting time parading with social movements or they are making more babies than they could ever hope to have money to care for
Nice generalizations, not every homeless person does these things. Some work hard to move upwards in social class, but it's simply not that easy with our given system. Also, they don't compete with the Joneses. "Keeping up with the Joneses" is a term applied to materialistic middle-class families that try to one-up each other. Homeless people ain't got shit to brag about. Also, I don't see what's wrong with the social movements? They want to see change in their government, change that will help themselves and their peers--what's wrong with that? Government policies have been enacted in the past directly due to these social movements. While it takes time and patience, social movements are not a waste of time for those they represent.
"Priviledge" doesn't arise from failures of the system, you don't get born into "priviledge", "priviledge" is acchieved with hard work, even the people who had the "priviledge" to know important people only rose to riches because they understood how to make use of that information.
Wrong, you ARE born with privilege. Here's a basic definition: "Social privilege is a theory of special advantage or entitlement, used to one's own benefit or to the detriment of others. These groups can be advantaged based on social class, age, height, IQ, disability, ethnic or racial category, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, and religion." Understand what you're arguing about before you start typing LMAOOO.
Any rich kid who does not work hard to inherit their family business end up forced to resort to either criminal means or risky ventures, and that is why some of the rich fall, and they fall hard. Being born rich is no guarantee of success, and therefore is no priviledge.
Won't address this in detail again since I already produced irrefutable evidence and statistics against this. Rich = privilege. "Rich fall hard," really? In those very rare situations in which they do fall (most rich people stay rich), of course they fall hard, because they had more money in the first place. How is that a disadvantage? Basically they go back to what poor people had from the very beginning. I would say that is pretty privileged, yeah. If you really think staying rich takes hard work and anyone can do it, you clearly don't know how rich people operate. The 1% of my country, at least, gets to the top by stepping on the backs of poor people and the oppressed. Social divides exist and social mobility is not a piece of cake. So stop licking their boots of the rich people, eh? Anyway, here's a cute graph using data from the IRS to conclude my argument:
