Actually worse than crypto miners

There are people who spend a tonne of energy and materials needed and wanted across the planet to fund crime and trash all that material, just to fill their wallet
and then there's people who waste tons of other people's material and energy to selectively hurt others by participating in crime, just to fill their wallet
