If they do, they get down voted.

Mine is basically dead. One person periodically posts a news article but no one comments.

Both Lemmy and Reddit are mostly echo chambers. If you don’t agree with the hive mind, you’re down voted.

There’s nothing wrong with that.

At this point, presently? People acting like they are experts on Marxism without ever delving into Marxist theory

If you rent at cost or even a little over you’ll go broke. People won’t pay their rent and trash the places. Non-profits are finding out that they can’t even support what they’re trying to do with housing because the actual costs are more than what you think are “at cost”.

So you’d choose senseless violence. Good thing you’re not getting any money.

Why is money your catalyst?

It happens to me as well. If I go slower it recognizes words more accurately.

Being a landlord IS a job. Being a landlord involves work, and work is a job. This is very simple.

“Landlording” is a word. It’s the act of performing the work of a landlord.

Anyone can pay someone else to do work. But the act of hiring others and making sure they’re doing their job is still work.

The majority of landlords are known as “mom and pop” which means they only have a few rentals. Many small landlords don’t hire a large team because there’s not enough money coming in from the rental to do so.

I’ve never seen the video game so there’s lots of questions. I’m only a few episodes in. It would be nice if they had explained some of the background.

A friend who’s really into Fallout showed me some videos about the background lore.

Being a landlord is in fact, work.

Simply owning a property is called being a real estate investor. You can invest in property without even setting foot in it.

But maintaining it, interacting with tenants, etc is all work and that’s what a landlord does. As such, people should get paid for their work.

The only people who want something for doing no work is landlords and shareholders.

You are incorrect about that. Landlords absolutely do work.

1. Not everyone who is a landlord is born into wealth. Someone born into poverty can also be a landlord.

2. By your logic, grocery stores are the same. They don’t grow the food. They don’t invent new food. There’s nothing wrong with grocery stores either.

3. The main reason landlords are hated is jealousy. People hate those who have something they don’t. Especially when landlords worked for what they have and the ones who are jealous didn’t – they want to be handed things for free without contributing. Look at the old parable of the ant and the grasshopper.

Totally agree. Instead of trying to create understanding, violence and thinking of other people as non-human only tears people apart.

Understandable.

There’s 41 houses/duplexes for sale in my city at or under $50k. The lowest are listed at $5,000 but someone could probably buy it for less. The city also provides $20,000 in money to fix up any of the houses they own.

If you’re looking for a representation of America, it’s basically violence and apathy.
