Their case is accurate to the graph, the graph is showing the distribution of wealth of the top 1% vs the general population, and in the last fifty years the top 1% does in fact have a wider share (the graph actually shows we are at our worst in nearly 70 years - since 1940, early WW2). The graph is inverted than initially assumed, the smallest share is at the top (15%), the largest share is at the bottom (55%). So in 1960 the share was ~28% and now it is ~40%.
