> In my opinion, this comes off as shaming privileged people for their privilege.

I don't understand where do you see shaming. Even in points I think fit me, where I am rich person, I did not felt shamed at all. In points where I could relate to her, I did not perceived myself as victim.

> she focuses exclusively on her disadvantages.

Most of points don't compare her to others in a sense of gaining advantages or disadvantages. The biggest disadvantage was salary one and there the complain is mixed with her own behavior that helped situation to happen.

> She could probably say a lot about the hard work and lucky breaks she's had that have helped her advance in spite of her challenges

She could also write about drawing or socializing with buddies. Not everything have to be forced into "how I succeeded admire me" framework. Sometimes people write about other things.

Yep, she can write about whatever she wants. Some people like it, I thought it was unhelpful. I wish it were something else and you're glad it isn't. Cool.

I mostly wanted to say I can relate AND didn't like it, responding to the parent.
