Slop.

How was that pedantic? Do pedantic quibbles fundamentally change what a statement means? They're generally used to imply somebody meant something different than what the listener knew they met. A difference in historical context between your situation and the situation described in the Communist Manifesto is not a pedantic difference. Words mean things.

No time for English or manners lessons, I suppose. Where did cartoon Twitter guy say people have to become homeless? You just assumed that's what they meant because you don't understand there's a difference between housing in the United States and other Western countries that is backed by the global dollar system. It seems like a lot of people here are reinforcing each other's misinterpretations of basic things. The reason why you have homeless people in your country is because the property values of your parents' homes need to increase. Of course, this is more of a 10% than a 1% of the 1% critique, but I think we pay too much attention to latter and not enough to the former these days. You're talking about homeowners and comparing them to Laos. You absolutely cannot be serious. Are we going to compare American farmers to Vietnamese farmers next?

EDIT: It may amuse all of you to hear that cartoon Twitter guy is not happy with my replies either.
