    vulture capatalist is a phrase referring to groups that watch for collapsing systems that then go in and make investments when prices are low, such as when a country’s housing market collapses. its not a blanket perjorative for people who try to make money.

      TIL. Had no idea it was even already a term but should’ve guessed as much. Maybe I could spin it to say society as a whole is collapsing, and human life has a low value right now?
