Oh ok. This that old world racism. Aristocrats vs peasants I guess.
It's not necessarily classicism adjacent.
The worst openly racist reaction I witnessed personally was against a polish man that had the exact job position and general social standing as the racist asshole.
An example in the US would be how JFK still faced some anti-Irish racism despite being as close to aristocracy as possible in American society.
Racism looks different in different places and times.
In America they care more about the shade of your skin, in Europe they care more about what cultural group you belong to.
