We just care a lot more about the the views of the Brahmin than your second class of people.
Than you for catching the typo. Also I find it refreshingly honest that you acknowledge reality of this.
Which class of people has the larger microphone? Which class has the money?
Yes they by definition don’t control the media or academia, their material resources aren’t trivial but it is impossible for them to coordinate, since any organization they create to defend their interests will be subverted or marginalized.

I doubt it (IQ, heredity), unless you’re including Asian immigrant populations. But in any case mathematicians usually spend a good amount of time in university which means, wherever they grew up, by the time they’re looking for jobs they’re usually firmly entrenched in a brahmin social circle.
Ah I fear I misunderstood you and took “produces” rather too literally. Don’t forget that STEM fields are attractive to those who want to climb socially but lack the graces because of their upbringing.
Obviously they retain few of those who go to become mathematicians.
