Rooted Out
n. Community infiltrators who fake deep roots to gain trust, only to betray their own people. More dangerous than outside threats because they use authentic connection to ultimately sell out their community.
Remember: Rooted Out threats hit different because they know exactly where to strike - they're from the inside. Beware of those who use community roots for personal routes. 🚫
