They just use communism to justify their sectarian violence, I'm on to them! Thanks for the cookie lol
Lol You must be a landlord, you sound pained, cope harder
No no, it's not just landlords, remember? Homeowners too!
I just don't think my mom should be dragged into the street and fucking shot because she "bought a house in 1996." If you were really about the proletariat you would shoot the bank owner so her mortgage would be paid off (well, as if that would work, but it's at least closer.) You're just a poser, pose harder.
It has nothing to do with homeowners. Homeowners actually paid for their land and are probably indebted to a bank in the form of a mortgage.
Nobles who own estates did not do that, they probably have a carve out in the state constitution and obtained their land by inheriting it from their ancestors (and being exempt from an estate tax).
Some homeowners inherited it from a parent that paid for it, should they be killed? And if you go back far enough, someone did "discover" that land (read: killed or displaced Native Americans), so it's the same as your british problem just actually closer to "great great grandpa fought for it" than the brits fighting the french or whatever the hell, which would probably be greatX6 by now.
Where does the comic say anything about a tax? It doesn't. You can assume that's what it means all you want but your assumptions are no more valid than mine due to lack of context. Frankly I'd say my assumptions are more valid than yours because I'm just going off the source while you're bringing outside things the source doesn't actually say.
