Oh hey didn’t this happen shortly before The Great Depression?
The working class need to stand together, unionise they’re streets and join the struggle.
The tipping point is coming.
The point when we collectively start tipping landlords
Off scaffolding and into woodchippers?
While I am not fan of those who choose to make someone else’s home and investment, the landlords only exist because we as a society have allowed homes to be an investment. Tip one landlord, another will pop up as the reward is so great.
I fucking hope so. We’re way overdue

I am saying to unionise rentals as it’ll serve to limit hikes and evictions
I know, I was just poking fun at a typo.
Still waiting for people to come together. For a few years now I’ve been getting responses such as, “I can’t risk my job/home/food/pay/etc.” Still wondering how much more it’ll take. Cause all of that is being taken away in some form with inaction.
The average person desires peace. We will suffer immensely for even the promise of peace.
My BlueSky feed is increasingly filling up with “I am short $X for rent and if I don’t make it I’ll be evicted” panic-posts.
Not saying this is some kind of leading indicator for a bad economy, but we did just spend the last two years telling people rents can only go up while wages must remain static.
Weird that the people fighting the war on poverty seem to be rooting for the underdog.
All while corporate profits are at all time highs. It’s painting a clear picture, something either has to change, or something has to break.
Just curious, can you raise the rent and evic if tenant don’t agree to pay new price ?
That’s literally what they do. Every single landlord I’ve had has been the equivalent fusion of Mr. Krabs and Plankton.
A few apartments ago, the pipes sprung a leak and destroyed my living room wall. The landlord ignored it for two months. They would answer my phone and immediately hang up. I notified the city, who sent a health inspector that took one look at the black mold and said the LL had to fix it. They “complied” by slapping a new coat of paint on the wall. When I got my renewal later that year, they raised my rent from $1800 to almost $4000.
