Actually it would suggest that the more privilege you have, the more privilege boxes you tick or can convince others you tick, the more likely you are to hold power and wealth.
There are a ton of examples of this.
President Roosevelt deliberately didn’t tell the public he was in a wheelchair.
Every US president except one has been a white man-and that “one” graduated from Harvard Law, and was straight, able bodied, Christian etc.
“Charm” stems from having the right manners and skills to maneuver in society and not being disabled or neurodivergent or concerned with social justice, ie coming from privilege or pretending like you do.
The fact that you have to hunt for exceptions, and they are all people who have risen due to asserting their value in the eyes of the ruling class-proves the rule.
