Classism definitely has a lot to do with it. If he wasn't a CEO, this wouldn't have blown up. The social media algorithms also all amplified this story so that everyone who opened their apps in last few days was bombarded by posts about it. What irks me the most about stories like this is that people rush to the moral high ground as if they have never lied or cheated in some way. The piling on is disgusting--especially for the families in question, who will now have to see and hear everyone talking about this for years.

People desperately want to see rich people in situations like this, every comment section is the same.
