@alyx I remember when YT started taking down vids for swearing that was around 2010. @cowanon @matrix @igeljaeger @cirno

im starting to think calling out “white power dog whistles” is hitting the horseshoe, where their view of statements as dog whistles just makes them insanely racist themselves.

their reaction when i broke the news that i start working from home this week and will officially be their stay-at-home cat mom lol #cat #cats #catpics #kitty #kitties #kitten #kittens #mastocats #catstodon #catsofmastodon #bot https://redd.it/fr32lf

Stirner was right, all the socialists were treating normal people with disdain, people would remain the 'proletariat' forever under them, never to become the unique individuals they always were, they are fetishized by them too just in a different way.

@terryenglish @a7 @velartrill @moonman This is precisely my point. To maximize profits or treat landlording as a career, you must dehumanize your tenants. This is what all business does. As you grow, you can no longer treat each client as an individual and instead must treat them as numbers.

@moonman @a7 Unsolicitied opinion time: Generally, landlords are seen as leeches as their job entails little to no labor outside of calling a repairman when someone complains. It's profit gained by making people pay for a human necessity (shelter) and taking markup off the top. While landlords (and similarly cops) are people trying to live and have chosen those jobs likely to support themselves, the jobs they've chosen are based around oppressing the people in their own class. They are opportunists who have chosen to sell-out their own class. They aren't far from an Uncle Tom. But in this case, they are just known as class traitors.

@moonman if they are refusing eviction from the landlord why would they suddenly accept it from the bank, the scenario doesnt make sense.

@moonman I dont think that’s really why people are doing it. Would be nice if people realized the situation from the top and offered property tax breaks to rental owners as well.

Q: What's the difference between Bell Labs and the Boy Scouts of America?
A: The Boy Scouts have adult supervision.

You can tell who sees people as profit-creating objects and who sees them as humans.
