#like yeah tell poor people with ten-year-old barely-functioning laptops that they can't afford to replace just how privileged they are

the notes on the last post being chock-full of people saying that having a computer makes you rich and privileged are hilarious. i had a laptop when i was 14 and living with my mom who had less than a thousand dollars to her name because a generous friend bought me the laptop, which was my only computer for another four years until i was able to build my first actual desktop in highschool with my meagre student allowance (after a while of saving). wild that people are somehow able to comprehend poor people having phones, yet automatically assume that anyone with A Computer is rich bougie upper class scum
