The size of the pie depends on how you measure it (there’s less dodos now, but more water mains, which are also nice), but sure, roughly correct.
That’s kind of a separate problem, though, isn’t it? The democracies of the world all have wealth inequality too. It’s not as bad as in most autocracies, and I hope eventually we’ll get classlessness, but we’re not there yet.
(Autocracies with low wealth inequality were a thing for a while, too, but they haven’t lasted, and weren’t really supposed to be autocracies in the first place)
Its not really separate. As people fear they turn to the right, which births more autocracies and ironically makes the situation worse with their policies.
That being said, where I live, there’s fear but it’s not really about climate change. Yet, this is a global trend. I don’t know, I guess I don’t really have a better idea, but just fear seems a bit too simple.
The first step is to identify the problem
Theres only one world pie, its deteriorating, and a tiny fraction of people own more than half of it?

How do you explain periods where there was prosperity and an autocratic shift at the same time? Like Early Modern Europe or present-day China.
Are fear and prosperity exclusive? Or can your nation be prosperous while it is fearing climate change?
Hmm, I guess.

Fear is the mind-killer, the little death that brings total obliteration.
