unprecedented equality != perfect equality

Unprecedented equality means that in a capitalistic (Western) society almost everybody eats a hot meal everyday day, has free time to enjoy, has an assortment of clothes, furniture and things, has a place to live with running water and electricity and appliances that run with said electricity.

All things that only the richest people could dream of enjoying just a couple of centuries ago.

Okay, and what about equality before the law and other such things? "Be happy you have a home, shut up", or what?
