I've never liked how the pyramid is arranged, as if the ones on top are living the 'right' way, or are 'better' somehow.

It should be the other way around, with 8 billion people hanging to a ledge,  trying to improve the state of the world, while roughly 6.5k are throwing a tantrum, desperately clinging to the ankles of the masses, threatening to drag everything into the void if they can't get their way.

I mean you just made another metaphor but it's more weird and doesn't work

It's not "higher = better" but the level above suppresses / deceives the level below. And the higher up you go, the fewer people inhabit a level.

Media literacy at an all time low. How on earth do you come to the conclusion that the people sitting on platforms literally weighing down on the lower classes are supposed to be better?
