Back when I lived in Britain and participated in the comments section of The Guardian, I had a local "Feminist" literally tell me that it was more important to flatten the 23% difference in income between the cleaning lady and the night watchman than to flatten the 30,000% difference in income between both of them and the CEO.
That very same crown generally focused on "breaking the glass ceiling" (i.e. get upper middle class and upper class women such as themselves into those 300x minimum wage positions) and I have never once read a concrete suggestion about addressing the gender inequality for the poorer social classes.
That last box of the meme matches exactly my own experience with "Modern Feminists" in Britain.
(Mind you, I lived in other countries and also met older Feminists and they're generally different and their version of Feminism is actually Egalitarian, though I've seen some young women were I live mindlessly ape this Anglo-Saxon neoliberal "Feminism").
