Comment on Who got that landlord money?
AntiOutsideAktion@lemmy.ml 2 days agoIf you’re making passive income from someone else’s labor by leveraging the fact you own the basic necessities of survival, you’re not in the working class. “Lemmy” lumps landlords into one big group because there’s literally zero difference in the fundamental relationship.
