Totally agree. But I wouldnt like it if someone misled my parents like this and took the house they actually live in, so I dont like this.

This was a renter taking the house that they, the renter, lived in

It was not depriving someone of ownership of the house they lived in but precisely the opposite of that, granting someone that ownership.

Yeah...take the landlord element out of it.

[-] Kuori@hexbear.net 59 points 1 year ago

but then that would be a completely different situation. why would you expect people to feel the same way about a completely different situation?

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Its the same principle. Personally Id make second homes illegal ...it destroys communities and takes housing stock from people that actually need it, but hey ho. Thatcher fucked us as well selling off council houses.

What if the world was made out of pudding

He's a landlord, that wasn't the house he lived in...

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Yes. I read that. Youre not getting my point.

[-] Gay_Tomato@hexbear.net 40 points 1 year ago

The problem is your orginal statement. "Wanting the law to be upheld only in situations you like" would cover your parents. A law system that would not invoke such a desire cannot exist in a society that still has landlords.

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

Yeah, we should ban landleeches. Unfortunately that wont happen cause money talks.

If only there was some other place besides money that political power could grow from

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
