Yeah, it's hard to see how being looked down on as ugly people with bad social skills is a mark of privilege. I apologize for being such a loser, since its clearly oppressing normal attractive people who want to enter the field.

Perhaps their thinking is that if people who are born with the privilege of being White and male end up as losers, then those people must be objectively inferior and so there is nothing wrong with making fun of them. I have trouble following progressive thinking sometimes.
