I don't think that's likely. The dominant ideology of the world, propped up by education, entertainment and other media is that the rich deserve whatever they have, because they are better people than the poor. Going against this dogma is heresy to most people of the world, they would gladly hurt themselves to help the rich.

Yup, "you're stupid because you're poor, yadda yadda". While an (economical) immigrant to developed EU countries when one starts their life from the scratch from opening bank account and applying for an apartment, it's being deeply engraved into one's consciousness. I bet OP is posting revolutionary comments, then wouldn't bat an eye to crush a coworker into burnout or depression, while the executive board folks are on Balearic, Canaries, or Costa del Sol.
