That’s a very psychologically weak take, and comes from the privilege of not having to take up these matters into your own hands, because our society had enough flexibility that you haven’t had to. …but that kind of weakness is pretty common these days, because people don’t have a lot to live for.
Regardless of whether you have a lot of power, personally, or whether you don’t have a lot of power, spending what you do have ethically and prudently matters a lot. Although many may not be able to make things better on their own, many have enough power that they will regret inaction later, when action becomes absolutely necessary, and no real preparation has been made.
In short: Call it privilege all you like, see where that gets you.
This is a very privileged point of view
bro every complaint and problem in your life other than eating, drinking, and sleeping is literally a privileged problem.
Eating, drinking, and “sleeping” (shelter/safety) are significant hurdles for a large portion of the population
which is why those aren’t privileged takes :)
