Nah. It’s definitely multifaceted but the idea that all human beings have equal potential at birth and the only that separates us in society is “privilege” is an absurd albeit popular line of thinking.
Genes matter. How much they matter is the question but when you look at things like success metrics and IQ it appears that they may matter more than anything else.
Social and economic equity cannot exist because human beings are not equal.

It's not even just genes. People matter. The same principles of the Buckley quote, "freedom breeds inequality" apply here.
Not all parents will parent as well. Now, some of this can be attributed to opportunities presented by privilege, but even in a world of equity, not all people behave the same.
