i think the "who is getting the guillotine?" is malicious framing. i assume u just worded it that way because it sounds funny but it still has effect of making ppl more reluctant to voice criticism.
no landlords should be killed. their private property should be transfered to a public ownership model and portions of their financial wealth should potentially be seized. ideally all housing would be made public but as a transitionary step, at least private housing should be.
for your examples, since we currently dont have good options for simply making those houses into public property, with the peopl who previosly owned them getting dibs on living there, its fair for them to keep the houses as private property for a while, without living there. letting other people live there for the meantime is also a good idea. just let them live there for free, under the condition of keeping the house livable and paying for upcomming costs. maybe offer yourself as a hireable manager for the house, if you want to get moeny out of it. why should people have to pay you for using something you dont need, if thats not reducing the value?
and yes, i am aware that being ethical with ones private property is hard, because its discouraged by current policies and public mentalities, but that doesnt mean its something we shouldnt strive for, on an individual and grander social level.
as someome who knows neither the us states nor australian areas well, i dont het any of this :33
woagh, i had heard about this book in the past but forgot the name and was never able to find it again. thanku so muchn!!! :3
what is this from?
you live in your own magical capitalist realism phantasy L
this is the first time that i hear this but i am willing to consider it. i already know that there are a lot of "exceptions" where the supposed law of supply and demand does not propperly explain reality.
could you pws link me some resources that support or further elaborate your claim?
something something doing brisket
im sowy this happend to you :< transphobic family is a bitch. i hope they will find queer god🙏
you do realise that supply and demand are just the enabling factors that cause landlords to be able to extort as much they want, right?
magical thinking about landlords?
what magical thinking? that they are greedy and unethical and try to make the most profit out of their control over a vital resource? what is magical about that? how exactly did op debunk that?
do you know why we have scarcity of housing? because capitalists profit from it. by keeping the supply lower than the demand, they can ask for more while doing less. its not in their interrest to construct more housing. the more they build the less profitable it becomes.
thats why i am advocating from moving away entirely from a profit oriented financing model and private ownership model for housing.
yes, my landlord is not individually responsible for the issues with housing. its a systemic issue. my landlord is still a leech that extorts me.
landlords are part of the issue. they dont simply provide a public service and get payed for their work and risk. they sit on a vital resource that ppl need to survive and exploit that. landlords, especially big ones, extort as much as they can, consitently raising rents without good reason, while doing even less than the minimum amount of work.
no one is saying that everyone should own their own house but the landlord/renting model is exploitative shit.
really most of capitalism is like that but ig we notice it more when its so close to us.

i think us politics being posted everywhere is what's annoying. do you even notice how they are everywhere? i dont see thousands of memes about australian elections.
if you want to post about your local politics on international platforms, you got to handle ppl telling you they dont know anything about that. you can always go to dedicated us politics spaces, if it bothers you so much.

i think u did great with ur guess of nonbinary :3
one cant really infer gender from pronouns but i think for it/its pronouns, general nonbinary is as fair a guess as agender.
just because they/them is a more commonly used pronoun for nonbinary ppl, that doesnt mean they wont use whatever other pronouns they vibe with.
(source: i use it/its and they/them)
i remember seeing an article saying that they forbit gender neutral language to stop language policing @w@
