I was more addressing the habit of colonial power structures to use violence and intimidation to push women and minorities out of positions of economic prosperity. "Violence and intimidation" in a modern context is exactly what #MeToo was about, so it didn't stop just because women have equal rights under the law. Frankly, a lot of women don't want to put up with that kind of crap and so choose careers in industries where they feel safe (which often pay way less).
