I’d go all the way to 100%. And they’re most worried about white guys blowing this off.

Because if there’s one group that appears impervious to facts and logic and reality, it’s that group of privileged folks who think that everyone else having the same rights as they do somehow diminishes their rights (so they fight to deprive everyone else of their rights and screw themselves in the process as the rich white folks deprive everyone of their opportunities)

I was playing a bit of a math trick with the statement. It is totally 100%. .9999… with the nine repeated forever is mathematically 1. The proof lies in writing .999… as a fraction:

x = .9999…
10x = 9.99999…
Subract the first from the second:
9x = 9
x = 1

As for the privileged group, they cannot fathom that just because it’s not a problem for them doesn’t mean someone else has it as easy.
