Priveledge is hated here because it isn't an argument but an often immutable ad-homenum to shield against arguments that are disliked. To give an example of why it isn't held highly "Pfft only those priveledged enough to not have to worry about starvation can care about democracy".
It also a hypercritically in calling them emphasis on "ivory" tower and "neckbeards" - implying both ugliness and not getting out much and then deridding them for being priveledged socially when they are already below the baseline and then dismissing concerns about a /social standing/ issue for double irony. "What do those ugly nerds know about being an outcast?"
