- Comment on academic jargon 2 weeks ago:

- Comment on The town and HOA only have two settings for a holiday: Jesus and Troops. I guess Labor days is a "Troops" holiday. 3 weeks ago:
Once upon a time, racists would put racial deed restrictions on a house (you could only sell it to another white buyer).
When that was thrown out, HOAs were a work-around (I’ve been told. Not completely sure how they could just veto a sale to someone with melanin).
Today, they manage communal property and services (eg landscaping and community pools). The little Hitlers will also put some light fascism in the rules. Some understandable like leaving trash cans out indefinitely. Some less so like exterior paint colors.
I’m generally not a fan of HOA for single family homes, but I’ve yet to hear of an alternative for multi family buildings (“condos” in most of America). How else do you decide what gets done to communal space?
