I think the notion of "privilege" and the habit of accusing people of being "privileged" are so off that if someone "uses the word against you", you might as well give up since the chances for a reasonable discussion are very low. This whole comment tree is quite typical for how it usually plays out.

(Obviously the great-grandparent comment that first used "privilege" is completely off, as are most statements involving the word in the wild)
