I personally like to reserve “parasite” for the investors, the ones who will literally send you to court if you try to be human to your employees.
It’s the same picture

True and the worse the people are the higher up they go, great for the inverters tho, bad for society as a whole (https://www.yewtu.be/watch?v=STYgeA9VSc) (the video goes over how the biggest investment companies stagger society as a whole, and how the normal person buying shares in a company DONT use their voting power to change the company for the better.)
Parasite species at least actually require resources from their host to survive. I think it might be too generous of a label
+1 for parasite
I’ve become personally partial to “landleech”.
Parasitic wealth hoarder, If you’re looking for something a little shorter, assholes works.
Or just oligarch or power addict. In the eyes of most people, wealth is about luxury, material goods and fancy toys. Of course that’s part of it, but at a certain point, wealth is no longer about luxury and toys, it’s about power and having control over resources everyone else depends on.
or oligarch, wait nvm how could i forget only the other has those, silly me how could i forget.
It is long past time we got over our child-like worship of billionaires.
Indeed, there’s nothing inherently exceptional in
billionaireswealth hoarders, according to many studies of this phenomenon. They are literally just lucky enough that they managed to get their hands on such a ludicrous amount of money, they really aren’t anything special.I never understood people instantly behaving differently the second they smell money in a person. It gets uglier the more they smell. Noone with money will ever deal with them. Never ever.
It’s epitome is this cult-like following or even worshipping of silly ass-clowns like musk.
I tried to look as poor as possible when i last dated. Golddiggers quickly leave then. I don’t get the followers and i even less get the rich fucks boasting around so they can never trust anyone ever anymore. Great tactics 😁
“Wage slave master”?
Sometimes I use the term “psychopathic hoarder class” when referring to this group of people.
“dragon”
Not incorrect. Makes them sound way too cool, however.
We might be in need of a Dovahkiin
I think it isn’t going to be that effective a phrase. People don’t understand why having lots of money (hoarding wealth) is a bad thing, necessarily, and it sort of implies that, if they were to just spend it it’d make the initial hoarding fine.
Gotta also focus on the fact that they essentially stole that money from workers through labor exploitation. The bare fact that they got the money to begin with is the problem, not just them holding onto it. If they were to spend it all on horrible capitalist enterprises rather than hoarding it, that’d be even worse. Even if they spent it all on “philanthropic” efforts, that’s still worse than the workers having their fair share and the government being able to actually have that money to spend on social programs through taxes.
The problem with this is that if billionaires just sat on their fortunes like a dragon sitting on treasure it would be much better than the way it is now, where they pump their billions into “nonprofits” that try to manipulate society to make it even better for them and worse for normal people.
or oligarch
Someone I strive to be, more money for the money pit, more food for the fridge, more education for my kids, more opportunities for the family, more money for charity
Wealth crimes
