How is it priviliged if my University proffesor makes less than some of his graduates with 3 years of experience?
Because there are other metrics for respect (and privilege) than simply the salary one makes.
For example: the "privilege" of being able to, at least in theory, devote one's skills and brain power to a higher purpose (curing cancer, say). Or at least to what one actually wants to do. Rather than the basically random stuff (and sometimes dark patterns) that most industrial types have to devote their intellectual resources to.

Maybe the people who can make a career out of damaging mental health of kids through dark patterns are the real priviliged group.
