Parasite, not predator.
Or the exploiter class
It’s not the “predator” class - it’s the parasite class.
Calling them “predators” will - apart from the fact that it’s inaccurate - simply flatter their egos
I prefer the term “Parasite Class”.
Many think the poor to be parasites, but they are actually the opposite.
After all, what is the mark of a parasite? It makes the host think that it is benign, of no harm whatsoever, and in some cases it even convinces its host that it provides a benefit. All the while it visits the most harmful deprivations upon the host, right up to sucking the lifeblood from it until it dies a horrible death.
No other tranche of human society matches those attributes more effectively than the wealthy.
Leeches, because that’s what they are.
The hoarding class
For me they are parasites, as they live off of the work of everyone else without contributing.
Predator sounds too cool, also. Makes me think of those hunter aliens from the scifi franchise of the same name.
Why not dickbags?

That feeling when you were randomly born wealthy and get the daily slander dose on Lemmy.
Just because you were born wealthy doesn’t mean you have to live like it or keep the money to yourself.
Exactly. Yet here everyone seems to connect the two and equalize together. It’s stupid really.
We should rather focus on pro-capitalists that can also be poor eg. (Trump voters).
I’ve never seen anyone here pass judgment upon someone whose parents are rich.
They say „eat the rich” „target practice”, „predators” and such. What do you mean you haven’t seen? This is the very post here.
Do you think it’s nice to wake up and see someone wanting you to die or get hurt? Nah it’s gross and evil.
Just because someone is wealthy, rich or well off it doesn’t mean they are automatically an outlet for all the evil and frustrations.
It’s never okay to generalize people like that.
Are you really so naive that you think that applies to people who happen to have rich parents?
Because they aren’t talking about you, they’re talking about your parents. If you become your parents, they’re talking about you.
What do you think happens with wealth? It stays in family. If my parents are rich then I am rich what are you even trying to say?
You think I wasn’t given millions already?
What happens with wealth? Ideally, it gets spent and/or given away rather than hoarded.
If you are hoarding wealth, as most rich people are, then yes, you are the one being discussed.
No one is forcing you to keep those millions.
