choarding

choosing to hoard.

Explicitly refers to extractive systems that exploit marginalized populations. Typically used to criticize colonial and neocolonial exploitation by private enterprises in high income countries. Arises as a result of class and labor alienation. The lack of community results in obsession of amassing as much capital as possible.
