Shelter is a need, owning women as property is not. It is disgusting to compare people complaining about landlords and people complaining women won't be their possessions.
Well, because as a class they raise the cost of land, meaning that many peoples only option is to rent. And then you have to pay off their mortgage for them.
Note that in the USSR apartments were 5 percent of income. That is what the actual cost of maintaining homes for people is, when you remove all the rent seeking and property speculation.
Yes, successful land reform movements have historically been lead by angry communists, thank you for pointing that out for anyone who might be interested in a little land reform that their best bet is to look into communist strategies of land reform.
I'm not trying to be passive aggressive, I am trying to be earnest:
Youre wasting your abilities by not educating yourself on marxist analysis. You come close to a bunch of points that are made by marxists but don't have the base of knowledge to develop them properly and do further analysis on them. Modern Marxists actually do write on the debt economy and you have the very start of their analysis but you veer off.
This is not an attempt to call you stupid, this is pointing out that you're trying to do something and having the right tool for the job would make your life easier.
There is actually, being a landlord is more of a feudal relationship within the framework of capitalism.
Now, both lords and capitalists should be
talked to about their destructive behavior and have their private property repatriated by the working class through legitimate state mechanisms, but there is a difference.
Landlords do not build houses, they own houses. Saying that they provide housing is equivalent to saying Jeff Bezos delivered your latest Amazon package.
Owning things is not creating things.
How is someone supposed to save for a mortgage when they're busy paying off someone else's mortgage?
They wouldn't be landlords if they didn't think they wouldn't make money off of it. However the petite bourgeoisie are often squeezed by the haut bourgeoisie, and if that happens enough we get fascism as class warfare on the part of the big beautiful boaters and car dealership owners.
Please just read any communist literature about class oppression instead of making up wild theories about why the working class is so poor. You're trying to reinvent the wheel without any idea about how a normal wheel functions in the first place.
You're on lemmy.world which is an anti-communiet instance.
This part:
Obviously.
