I mean, it sounds like it is abusive, but it's an abusive relationship investors sought out.

At this point it's akin to someone who seeks out abusive partners due to mental health issues. It doesn't make the partners any less abusive, but lets not kid ourselves and think the seeker is a healthy individual.

Their greed is killing them.
