The core source of things "bad" on the world is the dehumanization of humans by other humans. Some original reasons being race and gender. Religion also became a big one. In American culture it's revolves around hard work. Those who work less hard are less human or less deserving. In tech this also happens and it revolves around intelligence. It is opposed to hard work in a way as well. Blockchain puts front and center fools getting rich and fools getting scammed. I suspect the bristling is at the former and the latter is used subconsciously as a socially acceptable justification. Ironically truly empowerment technology created both good and bad and the creators did not become mega rich. Tcp/up and BitTorrent come to mind. It's only recently that tech has mixed with the narratives of high salaries and founders becoming rich. It used to be a Mish mosh of people just doing what they thought was cool. (without moral consideration I might add in a cats are assholes type of way)
