- Comment on Council housing when? 1 month ago:
You’re part of the problem that increases the disparity in wealth, yet you have the audacity to attack people who criticize you for it.
You’re entitled. You’re greedy. You’re a proud consumer. Instead of getting mad at me for point out these facts, you should start to value different things so you’re no longer part of the problem.
You accuse me of not seeing nuance, but turn around and do the same yourself.
I bet that sounded nice in your head, but it doesn’t really hold any relevance here.

See, that’s the problem. You people think it’s all-or-nothing.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
Not really. If we’re living at or below a standard that is attainable for us all, then we’re not part of the problem.
We don’t have to go off into the woods or subsistence farm. That’s a distraction put by the ruling class for useful idiots to believe so they think it’s all-or-nothing.
Magnitude matters. Just because you have more doesn’t mean you need to spend more, and that’s what the people you’re defending are doing.

If you want to collectively own houses, nobody is stopping you.

Have you heard of supply and demand?

🥱
This person has no idea what he’s talking about and we should all ignore him accordingly.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
Owning a house isn’t that expensive.
I own one. It’s so much cheaper than renting it’s not even funny. I could pay someone to do all the work I don’t want to and still come out so far ahead it’s not even funny.
Renting is a scam for useful idiots.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
Because there is nothing immoral or unethical about having multiple rental property.
Wrong. Nobody should have extra houses to “rent out” while hardworking citizens can’t afford a single house of their own.
The reason why we don’t have enough is because they have too much.
Stop being a useful idiot. It’s falling out of fashion.

Got ratted out by a mcdonald’s worker.

Even if there’s more income it’s impossible for young people to save and I hate it.
That’s the point. It’s why I always laugh whenever someone says “they’re a business and they need to make money!”
It’s like, that money is just going to the landlords of their employees more often than not. We can hopefully see how that rhetoric is a roundabout way of defending the profits of people taking advantage of us.
The working class has really sold itself out.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
Any reason why we can’t just change the tax code to make this thing less viable
Culture. Too many people think those who have more deserve more and those who have less deserve less.
Until this culture changes, we shouldn’t expect things to get any better.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
Why do you have an extra house when others don’t even have 1?
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
Renting is a scam.
It’s a shame so many of us have been convinced to fall for it.
I’m glad I got out years ago, but the housing market is abysmal too.
The problem is that too few people have too much and the rest of us have to do without enough. We need to unite against the ruling class and redistribute their wealth if we want our situations to improve. It’s literally the only way.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
Why do you get extra properties to rent out to others while he has to pay the rent?
The only reason why he doesn’t have enough is because people like you have too much.
We’re coming for you.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
That’s nice, but you shouldn’t have an extra property to rent out to others when there’s not enough to go around.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
A wealth and property cap would make way more sense and solve way more problems.
This species isn’t ready for it yet, though, and continues to suffer accordingly.
Future generations are laughing.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
Most people renting are doing so because they believe the houses they can afford “aren’t good enough for them.”
- Comment on Council housing when? 1 month ago:
I keep telling my friends rent is going up every 2 years.
Looks like it’s about that time.
- Comment on Council housing when? 1 month ago:
Would you be willing to do it in a town of 3,000 people?
- Comment on Council housing when? 1 month ago:
The thing that pisses me off is that I’m not Asking to be able to afford a house. I already gave up on that a long time ago.
Sigh. This is part of the problem. We need to value ownership more than renting.
- Comment on Council housing when? 1 month ago:
The core problem is consumerism. The idea that if you have more, then you should get more and spend more while complaining you don’t have enough.
- Comment on Council housing when? 1 month ago:
Not necessarily true. There are powerful cultural forces at play that they’re not willing to acknowledge, yet alone overcome.
We’re kind of in the same boat. We think that if we have more, then we deserve more before those who have less. That’s just what these people are doing, only they’re doing it way better than us.
- Comment on Owing your home today is nearly impossible, but even if you did the ever increasing property taxes will bury you 1 month ago:
Property taxes also aren’t egregious if you don’t live in an expensive house in an expensive area.
The problem is that most of ya’ll have been conditioned to think “that’s not good enough for you” even when you can’t afford more. Then entitlement kicks in where you think you deserve more before others who have less and before you know it, Bernie loses the nomination and we’re stuck with a trump presidency.

Yea generally electronics is depreciated every 3 to 5 years.
Not really.
But I can imagine that after 3 years of children usage they are done for. That aside though
It’d be cheaper to protect the devices with cases and screen protectors.

It’s twice the amount you were complaining about, and there are bigger drives than the one I have.

My laptop SSD is 2tb and I got it 3 years ago.

The powers that b really were ahead of the game when they introduced smartphones to the masses (dumbasses).
- Comment on Nintendo wins piracy lawsuit against file-sharing site 1 month ago:
I gladly never bought a switch.
It seems like when consoles started to charge for online was a good time to stop buying them.
The useful idiot crowd is too proud to waste their money on bullshit they don’t need to just to line the pockets of executives and investors.

A lot of people just don’t see the bigger picture, and it shows.
