I think it’s more than some. in a thread about people who regularly commit crimes against humanity we got “this girl bought an apartment and she’s not even a brain surgeon! WTF??” then people pearl clutching when it’s pointed out buying a home in Manhattan isn’t inherently evil. like you never see people posting stories about a doctor or author buying a nice house. wonder why

this is more a lib idealism thing than reactionary thing imo; the premise is that she can and should somehow abstain from participation in a corrupt society find an alternative in the market of ideas (but also literally the property market ). she's therefore not doing her part to shift humanity's consciousness to etc etc and is therefore bad

It's both and the class analysis is paramount. Otherwise it quickly devolves into myopic judgements perverted by the lens of capitalism.

It's not like the only "choices" here are guillotine or being fine with something. It's possible to just think "this is not a good person."

I don't really understand why anyone would care about 1%-ers being "unjustly attacked" It's basically the same as conservatives whining about people being racist towards white people (except even worse). People who can afford $2M homes don't need to be defended.

so your opinion on whether someone is a good person or not is if they buy a home after memeishly supporting Sanders? I mean supporting notorious liberal Bernie Sanders in 2020 was a joke anyway (virtually all of cspam) but it seems like the home thing is what gets on your nerves.

so what’s the amount for someone to spend on a place to live where they become a bad person? let’s quantify this

My hot take is that maybe people who claim a certain political stance should stick with it even after they get money.

Somehow this doesn't really ever happen.


Content: someone I know got completely hosed over for work stuff by an entity that is both getting shitloads of funding while also having terrible work practices that they're trying to push onto people NOT EVEN IN THE GODDAMN COMPANY. There's more, but I'm a bit too miffed to post greater detail without cooling off first. Anyway, there is a health hazard with the work and the response right off the bat was barely even a shrug.

like, yeah, i'm probably never ever going to see a deed to a $2m house with my name on it, but my career doesn't require me to be in manhattan or pasadena, i can touch spreadsheets from a cardboard box outside a starbucks on their wifi if i need to
