So, like, the argument would be that it is also barbaric to sentence a homeless person to 15 years for stealing $100.

The jaded view on this would be that we should then serve justice from the bottom-up, rather than pretending to be reformative to let another privileged, white criminal get off easy while not fundamentally changing anything. I can't say I disagree too much with it either. There is no indication that widespread reform in the justice system is impending, or that starting here and now would have a cascading effect leading to a better, less vengeful system for everyone.
