'Never again come at me with that bullsh*t': Dana Loesch schools troll who calls her 'epitome of elite privilege' for not wanting to pay off others' student debt

Earlier this week, NBC News digital reporter Ben Kesslen solicited answers to a very serious question about how awesome it would be if Joe Biden canceled $50,000 of everyone’s student debt:

Hi! I'm working on a story for NBC News about how 50k of student loan forgiveness could change people's lives. If it would affect you and you'd like to talk, please DM me or email me at ben.kesslen@nbcuni.com. Many thanks!

Among the many people who gave Kesslen an answer he didn’t actually want was Dana Loesch, who, like many others, pointed out that student debt cancellation wouldn’t actually fix anything but would instead screw over a whole lot of people:

It would change my others's lives by making us all unwillingly pay for loans we never co-signed while also paying for our own kids. https://t.co/HrijafkalE

Seems like a fair complaint, right? Well, this tweeter didn’t think so and concluded that only someone with “elite privilege” could feel the way Loesch does:

Makes no sense. Rewrite?

And try living a life of poverty aspiring to education. You have no choice but to borrow. You get screwed by lenders.
You are the epitome of elite privilege.

OK, now it’s Loesch’s turn to talk:

I grew up w a single mother who worked 3 jobs to stay off benefits. I couldn’t afford notebook paper and we lived off milk gravy and biscuits a lot of the time. Everything I made? I built. I worked hard and paid my own way without debt. You are the epitome of entitled assumption. https://t.co/wOyoR6FRJf
