they have sold their souls/humanity for money and power.
when people of power lose all empathy for the rest of us.
It's not just a matter of empathy, though you are right that they certainly lack it. It's the fact that the very nature of their class position demands that they act cruelly or else get out-competed by someone who does, which is a widely unifying principle that is only set aside when a business that can't compete with its larger equivalents decides to instead cut out a tiny share of the market to appeal specifically to left-liberals who want to have "moral consumption" as part of their lifestyle brand.
