There is a valid point hiding somewhere within this meme, but perhaps you should go and try to conceptualise for yourself the difference in scale of not only wealth, but power between the top 10% and the "middle" 40.
Again, like in the spiderman meme - pretending the two are in any way comparable (especially when talking about a global scale rather than just western/developed/whatever countries) only serves to shift blame away from those with all of the power and who make the rules for the rest, on to the rest.
I would suggest taking a minute to think with yourself why you're so eager to participate in their blame shifting game, and why so reluctant to hold those actually responsible, responsible.
