Milan, totally unrelated fact! The average rent in Milan has gone up ~15% the last year, and this is far from the first year this happens. I just checked and a 34sqm sardine box (360sqft for our burger comrades) runs €800 a month (and that's cheap, the average rent for a 80sqmt apartment is about 1100-1500€ in a city where the average salary is barely 2k (maany, especially young ppl, earn less)

I've heard (and not personally confirmed, tho it's very probable) that the average rent in Helsinki is very close to the average rent in Milan, except in Finland the average salary is at least €1000 above.

The rental market in Milan is a national stereotype and meme at this point, if you're young you either share a shoebox with 10 strangers or you live here:

All photos from different zones, also sometimes the cops like to use "very persuasive ways" to evict the people who live here.

Milan is also considered a "good city" (read: good city if you're a 🐷 or you have a well-paying career)

Edit: also I know the UᛋᛋA has some slums in the big cities, but Idk if they are as big as districts or something like that

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
