Vultures of Pain: When Tragedy Becomes Spectacle

There exists a category of human beings who reach depths of squalor so profound they would make even the worst merchants of illusion pale in comparison. These are the pain profiteers, those who build careers, ratings, likes, and consensus on the suffering of others.

Cancer is not a slogan. Wars are not a talk show. Catastrophes are not clickbait material.

Yet, every day, we witness a black market of emotion where tears and tragedies are counted like stock market shares. Shameless journalists who transform drama into entertainment, influencers who ride the wave of cheap compassion, politicians who use tragedies as launching platforms.

Human dignity has no price. But they, these merchants of despair, seem not to know this.

Zero tolerance, precisely. Because those who speculate on pain do not even deserve contempt. They deserve only oblivion.
