It’s wild to see the assumption that just because somebody makes a meme about a topic means that they don’t actively participate in trying to better our system.

If half the people wasting time on memes dedicated that to helping others, there'd be a demonstrable difference.

This is just an excuse to be anonymously judgmental while ignoring your own lack of effort.

There are so many vacant homes on the market that are perfectly suitable to live in

Can you provide a few examples?

I think that you overestimate what even large amounts of people working together can accomplish vs the lobbying power of companies like Blackrock. Our state is corrupt and calling your representatives can only do so much. Memes are a way of sharing ideas, and in any political movement, sharing ideas is critical. You may consider it a waste of time, and assume that OP and myself do nothing but virtue signal. Ultimately those assumptions are just that, and the only anonymous judgement has been on your end. I'm not making assumptions about you, or about what you do, support, believe, etc. I pointed out your assumptions, and you're calling that judgement. As far as vacant homes, there's plenty of data out there if you're willing to do a single internet search. https://www.census.gov/housing/hvs/files/currenthvspress.pdf
