This robs people of their individual context. The UK Prime Ministers wife is Indian and astonishingly privileged. You are suggesting a poor mine worker from Romania is somehow more privileged based on how he looks.

Lumping people into loose categories (particularly based on skin colour) and then prescribing loose values to them is fascist and racist.

youre deliberately misinterpreting the concept of intersectionality, it includes class.

I'm not deliberately mistinterpreting anything, if I don't understand something, then explain it to me.

Incredibly privileged of you to assume everyone else has your spoilt middle class educational background
