I put you into a larger ideological box than the one you put yourself in. You complained that you weren't a plant, you were a tree.

And yes I agree libertarians are dumb as fuck and I offer you the additional observation that there is no 'true' libertarian and they talk shit about each other all the time.

My source is a group of people I've already described as stupid

lol

lmao

I'm sorry, you're a libertarian. I'm even less impressed.

It’s difficult, yes, but our society has fought and won battles against vested interests before.

Yeah back when we had unions that would straight up murder scabs. Your thing, neoliberalism, works in the opposite direction. The results speak for themselves.

The idea is to turn landlording – a position of power and privilege with access to economic rents – into mere property management – a regular job where you earn income based on the labor you do in maintaining properties.

Then seize the land. If that's your end goal then do it.

Do you think you can trick the landlords into watching you do it slowly enough they don't notice? You think you can trick capitalists into getting real jobs? Preposterous. You have no sense of class antagonism.

Lol calling everything fascist propaganda

Anyway as I was saying there's inherently evil people out there and we need a police response to keep them suppressed for the safety of the good people of whom I and maybe(?) you are one.

Actually I'll have you know, sir, that I voted for the 'fascism only abroad' guy who you know would be good on Palestine because of how he won't call for a cease fire and voted with everyone else in the senate to support Israel.

What happened to his face?

And I'm sorry you'd have to pay me to get me to open an Atlantic article from 2020 about Hillary Clinton

Like 50 up front then like 100 an hour charged every 15 minutes I think is fair

I’m not acting superior, you’re thinking I am. Thanks, but I disagree.

The entire premise of this conversation is drawing a distinction from and moral judgement upon a group of people who you want to criticize for doing the things you listed yourself off as not being willing to do.

Please just pay attention to what we're talking about. If you were paying attention to what was actually going on you would not have spun off this canned throwaway response to 'you're acting superior'.

Get a new canned response by the way. Or better yet if that's how you're interpreting it, just don't rise to the bait. Past the point where you're brushing off taking an active role in genocide and confusing what it means to support a politician, the vast majority of your reply is just reactionary personal aggrievement.

Who gives a fuck how cleverly the administration of 'free market solutions' through tax policy is targeted towards 'incentivizing' landlords. This is a post about the parasitic relationship between landlord and tenant. I made a (glib) point about how it's difficult to legislate against landlords because they get to use your money to lobby against you. What does your point have to do with any of that?

And don't forget about how they used covid as nothing but a football and followed Trump's exact plan for it as soon as they were in charge of telling businesses they had to let sick people stay home. Democrats have more covid deaths on their hands than republicans now.

Yeah so I'm even less impressed now

80's crime world movies are fascist propaganda by the way. This person is demonstrating how popular culture is also political.

There is a such thing as a crazy madman killer in our society. They're called school shooters, and they live in the suburbs. The cartoon that exists in this person's head about what homelessness is and who it's a danger to didn't come out of thin air.

The top line of what you just linked me is saying they're going to drop property taxes on occupied buildings by 17% and raise taxes on unoccupied land. This isn't about changing the math for renters this is about shrinking the city's sprawl to save money on infrastructure.

And that's not to say taxing landlords is going to do anything. My point is about the political economy of going after people whom you give half your money for years and years first (for centuries). Our political system is designed to protect these people. From the constitution on down.

She is (or at least one of) the head of a massive informal organization that bridges massive formal organizations like Emily's List, Planned Parenthood, the DNC itself, and so on.

When a president wins an election for example, they have to get their staff from somewhere right? There has to be large numbers of people who can just drop what they're doing based on the outcome of an election and spend the next several years doing that instead. These people staff NGOs in the orbit of the political ruling classes of these parties. Hillary Clinton is one of the most powerful people in the country because she can decide who gets the best jobs in these organizations. She can get journalists fired, she can get ambassadors hired. That's her power.

Obama beat her and still had to deal with her to the point of setting her up to run in 2016. She didn't join his organization he became a 'board member' of hers with a small cadre of his own people.

Don't forget rapist who fucked over unions and owes me 600 dollars and finished the wall

Considering her accuracy with him

That's not the work of a landlord. That's the work of a plumber.

You are nothing but a parasite. A ticket scalper for being alive.

With who's politicians?

Half of your opinion is your own personal aggrievement for being morally reprimanded.

You already work to give it to someone else.

And police exist to keep them suppressed, disorganized and desperate
