Emotions are irrelevant. My point is that, not only do I argue (subjectively) that it should be acceptable to ridicule undeserving people in positions of power or rank, it's also (objectively) socially useful. If our leaders are poorly chosen, we should replace them. Right now, pedigreed incompetents are ranked above me and probably you. Do you want to change that, or let it stay as it is? This is self-interest, as well as a general desire to improve society. Emotional state (e.g. bitterness) isn't really relevant here.
