The time is now

Also, it's possible to be priveliged and also understand and sympathize with the problems of other people.

I got my B.S. years early with minimal debt. Working salaried in tech since I was 18. Since I can't buy a home I know shit is royally fucked and no I will not settle for simply scrambling to the top of my peers. Let's topple the tower.
- Right? I don’t make a lot but I’m lucky to have support and I do(normally) make more than twice minimum wage. Whenever someone says that I should change jobs if I want more money I seriously consider pushing them infront of traffic.
  My last bosses said, and I quote, “we are not responsible for paying for your lifestyle” in response to a Google Doc I shared showing how the salary they offer for my office job was grossly underpaying me and I was being quite generous. It’s like, what the fuck do they think a salary is? It’s literally the monetary compensation that someone gets which provides the lifestyle that we expect a given job should support.
  All these bosses have been told how special they are for way too long and they seem to think that we actually enjoy working for them so much that our salaries are more like a nice bonus.
- Bullshit years?
Also, it’s possible to be privileged and have your life wrecked by this system.
Just fucking imagine what it’s like to be underprivileged and never have a chance in the first place.
- I'd wager many of us have been both multiple times, over our lives without even realizing it.
  Actually understanding this?, now that's the first step to truly understand.

“It’s not the class you were born into, it’s the class you’re willing to fight for.”

If he was poor the narrative would be he’s just jealous and should have got a job and worked his way up.

Exactly, when people at the top fight for people at the bottom, you need to show your support Because that person will not be allowed to remain at the top
Yep, I'm reminded of Nina van Zandt Spies an heiress who gave it up to marry one of the haymarket martyrs. Sure of the Haymarket widows she's no Lucy Parsons, but America couldn't handle the one of her, much less a second.
We don't have a great many stories of people betraying the upper class for the lower, but all who do are welcome among us far more than those who betray our class for the upper are among them.
- interesting!

It's also possible to be in a stereotypical privileged position while still suffering from terrible things such as health issues that are not covered and are costly.

Especially in America, where access to healthcare is gatekept by a special class of people whose permission you need to obtain healthcare.
Imagine if you needed a prescription for new clothes, and couldn’t buy new clothes until someone else signed a sheet of paper saying you were allowed to buy a pair of jeans.
That’s not in any way a free market.

Evidently you don't feel as strongly as he did to throw his privileged life away.

Meh, one person's feelings and how they act are hard to measure up to another person's feeling and how they act.
Someone who lost a loved one because of insurance bullshit might feel way stronger than a knowledgeable kid who sees the injustice. And a thousand other viewpoints too, might feel more strongly about it than the shooter.
- Meh, that makes your point even more invalid than mine. Anyone could do anything for any reason and there's no real way to know anything for sure. Might as well sit in my room watching paint dry.

Well, I'm increasingly beginning to think that that guy isn't even the Adjuster himself, and we shouldn't treat him like he is guilty. (of doing such a wonderful thing)

He may end up not being the shooter but he has a history of posting things that align with the ideology
- But like... Don't we all?

Wait, so his suffering is less valid?

The hell?

He's literally extremely privileged and still suffered from a for profit system, so yes people with less means have it worse.
He did suffer, but he never became homeless, lived in fear day to day, or had to ration life-saving medications like insulin.
Yeah :D

Apropos of nothing, have you seen the prices of handguns these days? Even the parts for a 3D printed one can run you $900, easy. Fucking ridiculous out here.

You can get a used glock for ~$400 USD.
- Do you ship to the UK. /s
Yet getting hernia corrected is $16,000. $900 barely pays the rent for a month anywhere in the country.
When the cost of living is so high the cost of dying needs to be levied on the ones responsible.
Doesn’t every county Texas hand one out to you as a coming of age gift when you turn 18? Or was the cartoon I watched as a kid lying.
- I believe you can get a free gun with food stamps in Alaska for hunting
Holy shit really? I could get a pistol for 400€. Is there some kind of monopoly stuff going on that tries to reserve weapons for the rich?
Edit: did a quick search and found one a lightly used one for 130€
- I have no idea what the guy is talking about. Hi-points are under like 200$, and thats a complete pistol. It ain't luxurious but it shoots.
