Venture-Hijacking
‘Venture Hijacking’ is a sociological situation or phenomena whereby an individual or group A suffers the consequences of another individual or group B who has either attempted or succeeded in overriding or hijacking the venture of the former A.
Venture-Hijacking Examples:
1. Bernie Sanders and the Black Lives Matter Activist who hijacked his campaign speech to promote their own ideas. In this situation, Bernie Sanders was a victim of venture hijacking as he had organised a public gathering event to promote his campaign efforts to become the Democratic nominee. However, some female black lives matter activists ‘hijacked’ his platform to push their own political views.
2. During the middle of a meeting in the Quentin Tarantino movie ‘Kill Bill,’ a Japanese Yakuza gang member named ‘Tanaka’ starts talking disparagingly about O-ren Isshi’s (the gang leader’s) bi-racial and national heritage and insinuating that she was not fit to lead the Crazy 88 gang, as she is not pure Japanese. This scene is called ‘Tanaka loses his head.’
In this situation O-ren Isshi is the victim of ‘venture hijacking’ as she had called a meeting with her gang members in order to discuss matters in relation to gang business and one of her disgruntled gang member hijacked the focus of the meeting and started talking reckless nonsense about her being their leader. For which he pays the penalty of decapitation.
