Where do you draw the line. Would you maintain such ire for someone that worked at, say, mastercard? Unarguably 'fintech', but almost everyone would agree that efficient global transaction networks provide a lot of utility..

Arbitrarily and hypocritically. This is the internet, after all.

I'd love to take a few cracks at you! Nothing better than a good insult.

Ah, damn, sorry. I understand your situation now. I won't make any jokes as that would be punching down. Morally, I simply can't.
…no?
Look, anyone who admits they’re working for fintech is fair-game for punch-upwards jokes, regardless of their total-comp. I’d be cracking jokes about their soulessness even if they said they were working for a minimum-wage job in the sector.
It’s only slightly less disgusting than admitting you work for the Trump Organisation or Scientology.
