That's really not what "modern liberal social justice" thinks.

Modern liberal social justice uses what they call "intersectionality," which is a way of viewing people as being on several different axes of benefit or deprivation. Affirmative action absolutely takes wealth into consideration.
"We feel safe when we read what we recognise, what does not challenge our way of thinking.... a steady acceptance of pre-arranged patterns leads to the inability to question what we are told."
