    I’m literally arguing a point that someone made, then the comment was deleted. I think you’re projecting an inability to follow things onto me when really it’s a struggle that you’re coping with yourself.

    Reflexively hating all landlords is a symptom of not understanding how things work and, probably more importantly, a burning desire not to understand a goddamn thing.

    If you can’t get a loan to buy a house, what makes you think that will change if there are no rooms for rent?

    For real though not understanding how loans work at all is on brand for you guys, If you want to go back to the days when everyone could own a house why don’t you go attack the zoning laws that make houses so expensive and survivable, then we can go back to shanty towns that burn thousands and crawl with disease but hey everyone can own their own no loan hovel right?

    so if nobody will rent to you because renting is evil and you STILL can’t get a loan, where do you live? I think you kind of glossed straight over the unable to get a loan part which is going to poke them either way. Free house doesn’t exist.





  • If I’m holding something and someone comes up to me to try to take it from me, that’s violence. If I put my wallet in a locker, then you come by after I leave and break into the locker, that’s theft and not violence. If I set a booby trap in the locker I would be at fault because an innocent could get hurt, but if I catch your hand in my pocket and twist it off you got what was coming to you.



  • We’ve got carnies, which have a similarly cool-unsavory reputation but they do their best to pick the pockets voluntarily. UK has some squatter protection and a history of accepting and sometimes even romanticizing the gypsies which USA does not, so any illegal encampment that has any property worth having in violation of zoning is run out very quickly, especially out in the country where you might just get shot in the head for trying.
