Landlords do not provide housing - eviltoast

ID: A Sophie Labelle 4 panel comic featuring Stephie in different poses, saying:

Landlords do not provide housing.

They buy and Hold more space than they need for themselves.

Then, they create a false scarcity and profit off of it.

What they’re doing is literally the opposite of providing housing.

    or that they are indoctrinated by capital.

    We all are, and that you think some people aren’t is something you should really consider with yourself.

    And while I can agree with the first part, you’ve really got to check your privilege on the second.

    I have all the time in the world for people who actually want to learn and know more, this person doesn’t strike me as being there, and I currently have better things to do with my time and emotional labour than spoon feed them information they’re not interested in hearing. I have no issue being blunt with people who need a slap in the face from reality.

    If you have the free time and energy to bang your head against a brick wall, you be my guest, but you don’t get to decide how I spend mine.

      You make a lot of assumptions for someone who is apparently willing to patiently “spoon feed” information, lol.

      What a mean-spirited comment! Why would anyone listen to what you have to say when you talk to people this way? Its a shame, but hey, if you enjoy talking to people like that, I guess be my guest. I’d rather meet people where they are. Have a great day
