Privilege and modern Marxism

New illiberal lefty obsession with “privilege” is old Marxism, new paint. The privileged/bourgeois are bad, and have all kinds of advantages they don’t deserve, while the oppressed/proletariat are the only ones with the social credibility to be able to speak in public. The first group is shamed, the second one elevated. Both systems are crude, illiberal, and the new dichotomy will prove just as durable and useful as the first.
