I find myself agreeing with you both. Personally, I found this piece a bit jarring. But that the same time, I think it has successfully made the rounds as it catalyzes a certain emotion into a perspective that people can share.

The dehumanizing nature of it does bother me, though. It's the foundation of any war. And yet, although many wealthy people don't actually feel this way, the distribution of wealth might be seen to be enacted by someone that did.
