Of course. The question here is not one of whether wealth inequality is bad, but if we are living in the period of the greatest wealth inequality in all of human history.

Oh I'm aware, but it sure seems like trying to compare now to the Pharohs' time or whatever is more of a whataboutism than actually trying to address the issue. Though it is interesting to think that being considered a god amongst humans is perhaps an even greater inequality than material wealth. Still, I'd rather have air conditioning and regular bathing than whatever your historical despot of choice had to put up with.
