Yes and no. Class is a factor in privilege, certainly. But Moore was given
opportunities in comics that most POC of the same class level were not. And
women definitely weren't. He was able to get jobs that people of color or
of Indian and African descent were not offered, So yes, he's privileged,
just less privileged than someone of a higher class. I know this partly
because I see it here as well. A self-made white male millionaire can get
into certain circles that a self-made black male millionaire cannot.
