Hey I'm not really worried, my landlord is actually really cool. The place I live in is actually better than the place he lives in. My rent is well well below market rate for what I should be paying. I lived in the same place for the past 11 years and he's only raised my rent twice for less than $200 total. Not all landlords are bad, not all of them are in it just to get rich. And not all of us would be able to buy a house regardless of paying rent or not. And I'd much rather pay rent to somebody for a nice place to live then be living in a tent by the river.
Damn, you're right. It's like how I'm not worried about wealth inequality because I lucked out and have a steady 60k a year job with a nice employer. Not all employers are bad.
Or how I don't give a shit about abortion because I made the stone-cold choice to not be a woman.
When things aren't affecting me they don't matter so why are people making a big deal about it?
Nope, gotta kill your landlord and then get in a shootout with the cops when they come to ~~his~~ your house, you heard the tankies. Time to die for their utopia soldier!
