Honest question: why didn't you tell him directly? I feel like for the right person, this could turn things around? Or maybe I'm just naïve

He was clinging to the CEO position because he wanted to be in charge and call the shots. Anyone who got in the way of letting him do whatever he wanted was excluded from future meetings and then quietly let go in the next round of layoffs.

Disagreeing with him meant the end of your employment. One of several reasons why most of us left.

That's only a possibility if you have an appetite for increasing the risk of being fired from your job.
