If you steal our words, how can we fight you? Maybe it's time to invent some new ones.
'Privilege' never used to mean 'wealthy' or 'rich'. It meant "a special advantage, immunity, permission, right, or benefit granted to or enjoyed by an individual, class, or caste."
The word 'freedom' has also been subjected to a subtle change in meaning. The word formerly meant freedom from coercion, from the arbitrary power of other people. People who share your opinion have changed it to mean freedom from necessity, release from the compulsion of the circumstances which inevitably limit the range of choice of all of us.
