On a surface level, it's the same type of shit that got Trump into office. The bad things only happen to bad people so this won't affect them. Same mentality as "if you have nothing to hide why are you so worried about it?"

The people that don't care either don't think it's a big deal because they are one of the "good" ones or they believe these billionaires have their best interest in mind. What they don't realize is that it has nothing to do good vs evil and the powers that be can decide at any point to change their definition of good and evil. Being one of the good ones today can only be helpful if the powers that be keep the same definition of good consistent, which they usually don't.

Tl;dr The leopards won't eat my face, so I have nothing to worry about.
