word trafficker
A person who trades in words; a sophist, an idea thief or a writer who compromises literary integrity for commercial or personal gain.
The word trafficker is a “mercenary pen”— a practitioner of high-stakes textual arbitrage; one who aggressively manipulates, redefines, or smuggles newly minted language across digital boundaries to bypass established institutional gatekeepers or algorithmic filters.
