It's interesting how this movement had its roots in left-wing thought, but has now been thoroughly co-opted by libertarian right-wing types. At its inception it was about tearing down society to start again, hopefully leading to something more equal afterwards.
There's still a lot of that radicalism about tearing down current society and restarting it, but I don't think most of the people who identify this way now really care very much about equality.
