What Feminism's Become

Is 3rd wave feminism any more than a gigantic whinge by privileged girls, that boys play a bit rough & the ones they want won't look a them?
My contention is that women now demand to be treated as eggshells, not equals, and that feminist grievance hunting has become a way to have unearned power over men (and nonbelievers).
There's also a denial of sex differences and biology and a religion centering around what can and cannot be said. Say the "wrong" thing and you will be excommunicated or at least Twitter-mobbed, if you aren't part of the feminist fold. Or you may lose your job and lose everything -- despite not having been guilty of what you've been accused of.
My fucking gripe with feminism is I see nothing but overly educated women with very little financial pressure.
Sexual harassment in a college campus? Oh I'm shaking in my boots. A man hit on you while youre on your way to earning a thousands upon thousands of dollars worth degree-how awful, I will let all those Mexican women that pick your organic strawberry and know of the common and looming threat of getting raped in the fields know just how traumatic it is to have drunk sex you regret with a douchey guy at a frat party.
Then POC (hate the term) feminists are just as fucking awful. They migh have come from a poor background (maybe--not usually) but have zero clue how to reach women that will benefit from feminist ideas. Poor women want practical advice and shockingly many actually like being "sexy".
