Is it ironic that someone specialized in ethics would have a son so adept in using them to his advantage? Seems like a natural conclusion to me.

Effective altruism seems like a weaponization of morals to support wealth hoarding.

Exactly. A professional ethicist giving a complicated justification for why what they did was OK even though everyone else thinks it was wrong isn’t ironic, it’s apt.
