Welcome to the wagon. I'm not against it for anything other than the objective reason of "2015 America and the world of Hydaelyn are entirely incomparable for these purposes"
I get what OP's trying to do. It's cool to try to involve everyone in a big intensive character survey, and the frustration at all the pushback is understandable.
But this doesn't work. Sorry, man. Plus the idea of "privilege" is a hot-button issue in society right now, so it's probably not wise to throw it into this make believe world we all play pretend in. It's a little too real for some people.
Plus, how the hell am I supposed to gauge my character's privilege? His circumstances are entirely unlike my own, or anyone's, for that matter. Gauge Tarzan's privilege and get back to me with what you find. If that works, I'll give Tancred's a shot.
