Well, it’s a nice strawman you erected to put on a piñata show for the class.

The system that makes housing operate that way is criminal. Housing should not be a commodity
Honestly in most discussions I find the communists to be the more nuanced of the bunch.

People do talk, sometimes talking doesn’t work, and yelling does.
