Let’s try not to use gendered language.
“Landbastard” is the preferred designation.I think “landleech” rolls of the tongue better, but it feels wrong to compare them to something that plays a legitimate role in its ecosystem.
ye, this is an old meme from my reddit download. will keep that in mind if I get to making housing related memes
Call them the derogatory term that they are: Capitalists.
A landbastard also implies there’s a seabastard, skybastards, and firebastard
r/landchads would be really sad about this landphobia :/
for leeches I only have r/Landlordlove
Landlords have their place. However, it’s filling the niche between hotels and home ownership. Maybe 20% of housing, at most.
The current crop of value syphons are not a good thing. Unfortunately they are a symptom, not a cause. If housing supply was high enough, then the margins for landlord would shrink enough to get rid of a lot of them.
the cause is that under capitalism housing is treated like a commodity and not the basic human need it is
