        A person who loves art, music, movies, and dance, and all forms of culture so much that they consume whatever they find, whether or not its any good. Like birds that scavenge by the roadside, culture-vultures feast on art wherever they find it. They will listen to Mozart in the concert hall or the punk in a club; their clothes are as likely to come from the thrift store as they are a boutique shop; they have Architecture Digest on the coffee table while they watch MTV Cribs. They consult the Oxford English Dictionary but double-check the Urban Dictionary. Culture vultures are especially good at talking about low art and culture with the same insight and intelligence as high art.

          A Culture Vulture is a practitioner of cultural appropriation. A Culture Vulture is an inauthentic individual who attempts to identify with aspects of another culture and claim it as their own. They do this by mimicking aspects of culture that belong to another group of people and not giving credit where credit is due, which creates the illusion that the aspect of culture they are mimicking is authentic to them. They also do this by claiming that certain aspects of another group of peoples culture originated with them, with no historical proof to back their claims.

            A toxic, negative team member or employee who thinks only about themselves and as a result theyre toxic to team success. A culture vulture thinks only about what the team can do for them, not what they can do for others. Like actual vultures, they rarely attack healthy team members but will attack the weak. Culture vultures will sabotage others to make their own accomplishments stand out. Their negativity kills everyones results.

              A group, nation, or individual who tries to claim/steal or assimilate into a culture that is not of their own. Usually jealous, self-hating and feel they have to justify or prove themselves to others or the world. Feels resentful of the people that fought for them. Basically any [Mexican], [Polish] person or [Canadian]. Culture Vultures feel inadequate and feel the need to steal a culture or pretend they are cultured, because they have no culture of their own. (Some people would say Americans do not have a culture, however before WW2, they did. Americans indeed have a culture, as do Australians and New Zealanders. Even the more obscure [Basque] people of [Spain] have a culture of their own.)
