- npkarnik 11y agoYour claim doesn't make sense to me. The author does not prove there isn't privilege and inequality in SV. He only shares his story of how he overcame a decidedly unprivileged background. If the expected value of my bet in a game of craps is negative and I still win, that doesn't mean the odds weren't against me.
- outworlder 11y agoNope. The poster proved that you CAN overcome the handicap. The fact that you can overcome some limitation doesn't mean that the limitation wasn't there to begin with.
