The sharks are in the water and there is a lot of disdain for wealthy tech CEOs. The current public perception is that all of Silicon Valley is either mustache twirling Peter Thiels or tech bros who collect millions trying to create the next Uber for dogs.

The vitriol for those archetypes will override any empathy for the victims from knock-on effects and lower level, poorer employees that will impacted by this. If that empathy was ever there to begin with, I guess. I personally believe that people want to hate the rich more than they want to empathize with the poor.

Personally, I can do without the DoorDashes of the world... but startups collectively employ A LOT of people and not all of them are wealthy, senior engineers. When the wealthy sneeze, the poor tend to catch pneumonia.
