I don’t care about “deserves”; that’s a fallacious concept perpetuated by the haves to keep the have-nots ‘in check.’
To anyone who has any modicum of unearned privilege, it absolutely is about their comfort and doing whatever it takes to maintain it.
Excellent point.
It’s not my fucking job to somehow make the ugly reality of my existence in a systemically racist and unjust society more palatable to the people who inadvertently or passively benefit from the status quo.
