Absolutely! I don't personally idolize rich or politically powerful people, they are just the people who (unfortunately) currently hold the most sway. I'd like to see a system where power and wealth are more equitably shared -- across genders, yes, and even between men. I can't stand the false "scarcity narrative" that the patriarchy promotes. Personally, I think the feminist movement has historically placed too much emphasis on getting women into positions of power and not enough emphasis on reimagining and reconfiguring our current power structures. I'd like to see women striving not to be Fortune 500 CEOs but starting worker-owned cooperatives (like the company where I work) that share power and earnings. I'd like to see men reconsidering what metrics we use to measure "success" in business/life and taking on more caregiving roles. I could go on... but I'll stop there for now :)
