Nah, I bought a house 3 years ago. I still hate how inaccessible the housing market is, how shitty conservatives are towards other people and how much they deny science. Owning property doesn't magically make one conservative. Fuck conservatives, fuck the rich.

It was probably easier to become conservative with age when conservative politicians weren't so blatantly evil. They had their moments, but they sure as hell didn't stage a literal insurrection when they lost an election.

One of my few lucky moments was buy a home in the mid 2010’s. I feel so bad for people now, but rather than some ridiculous “let’s pull up the ladder” mentality that Boomers and most older Gen X seem to have, I try to vote for politicians who want to return us to a sensible housing market.

In no way should banks and their LLC shadow corps be allowed to own hundreds of thousands of residential houses.
