I'm trying to be one of those people. I realized how immense my privilege actually is I when I started to hang around a crowd of alternative people. I feel like I fit in much better there than with those others "that made it in life" (whatever that means). But it's sometimes really awkward to make twice what they do for less effort day to day. I'm going into politics and try to influence where I can in my job and social circle since I fit in in places the true radicals can't. The world really is fucked up. I try not to ashamed of my privilege, but instead grateful that I have the ability to make a bigger impact for less costs on a group of people that really needs to get the message.
