A Stock Phrase and concept used to encourage the vilification of wealthy people. Frequently, the phrase is used to metaphorically advocate a class uprising or revolt among the lower and working classes against those viewed as Evil Aristocrats and Corrupt Corporate Executives—the Have Nots taking from the Haves. Occasionally, that metaphor is accompanied by language and imagery that literally suggests eating the rich. Compare Rich in Dollars, Poor in Sense. Contrast Kill the Poor and No Poverty. High-Class Cannibal is the literal inverse. See Also: Hates Rich People for characters who hate well-off folks. For the comic, see Eat the Rich (2021). |

Taken literally by the Commoners in Tooth and Tail, a game set in a World of Funny Animals where the sole source of meat is other people. The Commoners' goal in winning the Civil War is to institute a Dictatorship of the Proletariat, where everyone would vote on who would get eaten (the Commoners are by far the most populous faction, so no guesses who's going to come up short under that system). | |

In the Honor Harrington books, Pierre, the head of the People's Republic of Haven, does this three times. First, he confiscates the wealth of the Legislaturists — the previous ruling class — but it's not anywhere enough money to fund Haven's social welfare system and solve its financial problems. Then he gives the Legislaturists show trials and executes them, which only makes the mob hungry for more blood. So he unleashes Haven's navy on the Star Kingdom of Manticore, an enormously wealthy neighbour, in order to solve both his financial and the bloodthirsty populace's problems. This sets off a chain of events that results in his own death and brings the People's Republic within weeks of total collapse. Though other things he does do result in improvements in Haven's economy and society, long term. | |

Mentioned by name in an episode of Gotham; a Serial Killer known as "the Goat" kills the social elite with decades in between rampages, and it turns out that a psychotherapist has been hypnotising and brainwashing her clients into doing it. When confronted with this, she explains that the old belief that people can't be hypnotised into doing something they don't want to do is true and that her plan only worked because, deep down, people really do want to "eat the rich". | |

A general motif in Luck be a Landlord; your landlord is set to be 'defeated', and will receive a random death upon completion of the game. There is also the Billionaire symbol, which gives no money to you when rolled (though it will increase the value of nearby Cheese and Wine) but delivers a tidy sum when destroyed...possibly by the Guillotine item. | |

The Motörhead song "Eat the Rich" was written as the title track for the film of the same name (See Film, above), which also featured Lemmy in a supporting role. However, the song's lyrics are actually a thinly veiled reference to a certain sex act. The song is mostly remembered for its chorus. | |

Assault on Wall Street depicts the 2008 financial crisis as the collapse of a giant Ponzi scheme pulled off by corrupt portfolio managers and bank executives. The protagonist, Jim, who having been conned out of his money and lured into a debt trap of $60,000, ends up losing his house, his job, and then his wife, who commits suicide out of guilt that she feels responsible for her husband's pain. He tried to argue with the Assistant District Attorney who refused to take his case but accidentally ends up killing him instead, inspiring him to go on a killing spree upon Wall Street's most powerful corporates so that when they die, their wealth will be used to compensate the Ponzi scheme's victims. | |

In The Dark Knight Rises, Bane manipulates many of Gotham's citizens into rioting against the city's upper class and remaining authority figures, causing chaos to distract from Talia's plan to nuke the city. There is even a Kangaroo Court where said targets of the rioting populace are considered guilty by default and get to choose one of two punishments: Exile, or death by exile. | |

Major Grom: Plague Doctor. The Plague Doctor carries out several vigilante murders of corrupt Russian oligarchs, then proceeds to fake his death, leaving a supposed Video Will calling on his supporters to take up his cause by robbing and killing rich people whose names and addresses he sends out on the Internet. His actual intention is to get rid of the oligarchs trying to steal his company (he's like an evil Batman), then martial law will be declared and the army will shoot his riff-raff followers. | |

Warframe: Grendel's lore has an example that's both figurative and literal. In the Europan city Riddha, the impoverished population starved while a gluttonous Orokin Executor named Karishh hoarded all the food for himself, even getting artificial stomachs grafted onto him so he could eat twelve times as much as a normal man. Grendel, a man-eating Warframe, stormed Karishh's mansion, devoured the corrupt guards, then used his "Nourish" ability to revitalize the weakened citizens, who went on to storm the manse and eat their fill for the first time in ages. It's implied that Karishh was later literally eaten by Grendel when he tried to flee into the mountains, where a satisfied-sounding belch was later heard. | |

In Parasite (2019), the Kims are undoubtedly swindlers who take advantage of the Parks, but they also suffered poverty and lack of opportunity. While the Parks are presented fairly sympathetically, their wealth and comfort at the expense of the people in their service contrast very sharply with the living conditions and lifestyles of the Kims. This is ramped up by the end when Ki-taek, fed up with the Parks' Conspicuous Consumption and denigration of the lower classes, fatally stabs Mr. Park. He flees, becomes a fugitive, and runs back to the Parks' house where he remains in the secret bunker. After the (surviving) Parks move out, the house is bought out by German expatriates, and he survives off eating their food. There is no guarantee that his son will be able to secure his freedom by buying the house, so it can be presumed Ki-taek will have to live like a cockroach for the rest of his life. | |

Quite literally with Hickey from The Terror. Working-class Hickey begins the series with quite reasonable gripes about the way lower-ranking men are treated and the life-or-death power of the incompetent officers who are leading everyone to their deaths. The story then has Hickey stage a mutiny, psychopathically sabotage everyone’s chances of escape, and start killing and eating his comrades and superiors as revenge against the officers who have humiliated him. He is defeated by the reasonable and noble captain Crozier, and his own hubris. | |

Subverted in season 2 of iZombie, regarding the Chaos Killer. Ostensibly a Serial Killer inspired by the "Occupy" movement who is targeting Seattle's wealthy, he's actually Major going after the city's zombie population, having been coerced into becoming a zombie hunter by the energy drink company Max Rager, who wants to keep one of the side effects of their flagship product under control. The idea of a radical leftist kidnapping and murdering these people helps to throw off suspicion from the real culprits. | |

Bloom County: In one Sunday strip, Donald Trump at one point mused on the greatness of America since it helped him become wealthy. He starts bragging about his wealth to one of the main cast members, Ronald-Ann, a poor girl who lives on the wrong side of the tracks. The strip ends with Trump remarking that it's amazing that people like her haven't risen up and eaten people like him already. To which Ronald-Ann's headless doll replies, "Yet." Earlier, one of the times that Bill and Opus ran for President and Vice President, Opus was accused of being... a liberal. After unsuccessfully fending off the accusation for a while, Opus finally gave up and screamed that what he really wanted was to see the rich ground up into hamburger to feed the poor. |

Dead Silence has the luxury space liner Aurora built to cater to the rich. For those who might be afraid of this trope, they built the "Versailles Contingency", a failsafe in the form of panic rooms that would seal and save the very richest passengers in case of a mutiny.

You get out there, you use your weapons, you rip Washington apart, you hunt down the billionaires, the bank bosses, the CEOs, the scumbags and the liars, the governors, the lobbies, the senators!" The third movie President Down has Bill's dreams come true despite that he died before he was able to see it when his viral followers arm up and start targeting the wealthy elite and decision-makers who are affiliated with the U.S. government, the U.S. military, large powerful conglomerates such as Microsoft and General Motors, Wall Street, big banks and even Hollywood and the music industry. |

The spirit of the trope is very much alive in Game of Thrones, in which the famine-stricken poor of King's Landing riot against the aristocracy. While they are not actually shown eating anyone onscreen, the line in the book that the crowd "tore the High Septon limb from limb" was taken very literally on the television show, looking like something out of a Zombie Apocalypse. | |

In Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues, Daigo planned to create a lizard monster and have it gorge on the upper-class, due to his distaste for how they ostracise and discriminate against the lower classes. However, he's instead manipulated by his girlfriend to test it first in a poverty-stricken area, which leads to its death when the protagonists find out about it. | |

Interview with the Vampire (2022): In "The Thing Lay Still", most of the guests that the vampire family invite to their Mardi Gras ball are the elite of New Orleans, and several human prey are selected for the after-party feast, where Lestat de Lioncourt, Louis de Pointe du Lac, and Claudia literally eat the rich. In the Season 2 First Look Scene, Armand targets the wealthy de la Croix family and their guests as food for his vampire coven because of their war profiteering during World War II. |
