Probably the most true post in this entire community.
Let’s not confuse landlords and corporations. The former are people, the later are not. They’re often horrible people, but they’re still made of meat; corporations are made of ink, paper, and a stubborn refusal to accept reality.
These people post things like that and look at it and go, yeah, I’m happy to put that out on the internet that’s a coherent sentence, with correct punctuation and spelling.
What is wrong with them?
How do they ignore all the red squiggly lines?

I’m thinking these sort of people look at those lines like some sort of challenge. “No line is gonna tell me I spelled that word wrong!”
Next to their real name and face as well.
It’s why I know the stats of 99% literacy rates are bullshit. I’ve been on Facebook. Half the people in my town seem to communicate online through the text equivalent of caveman grunts.
So the definition of literacy that they use for those stats is a super low bar. Like the bar is lying on the ground. The National Assessment of Adult Literacy defines literacy as “the ability to use printed and written information to function in society, to achieve one’s goals, and to develop one’s knowledge and potential.” That’s not a high bar to clear and the literacy rate, in the US at least, is still only about 80%.
Trofim Lysenko killed the most people under Communism, through famine. Most of the deaths under communism have been due to famines and misconceptions about farming.
…and more were killed by Capitalism in the Belgian Congo and by The British East India company alone. Both of which were run as Capitalist ventures.
“Misconceptions about farming” isn’t really accurate though. The farmers knew how to make food, but in both Russia and China, at least, the central government decided bullshit was as good as science and fucked around with a working system.
That being said, America also fucked up their soil so bad that they created a dustbowl with a non-zero deathtoll, and modern western farming practices are also fucking up the climate via algae blooms, pollinator killing pesticides and just straight up spewing diesel exhaust.

The problem was that they thought Lysenkoism was science. Obviously, plants would grow according to Marxist ideology because why wouldn’t they?
It didn’t help that Lysenko started off being right. It turns out that planting some seeds deeper does increase yields!
Clearly we should double the depth!
I just got evicted after attempting to pay. Landlords are scum.
They like it when you succeed in paying.
friend of mine got evicted because the Landlord wanted to take over the condo for “personal use”. friend paid on time every month, never missed a payment and got evicted. So you’d think the Landlord would move in or move in a family member. nope, Landlord wanted to raise the rent…a lot and evicted my friend.
Friend isn’t an idiot and keeps an eye on the place cause they suspected as much. sure enough a month after being evicted the same place is being listed again online for $1500 more a month. Friend knew it was theres because their microwave they left behind was in the listing photos.
Friend proceeds to take the landlord to small claims court and wins. Now getting that winning judgement from the landlord? yeah not so much.
I’m about 90% certain this is a satirical post.
I’d say 100% because while funny, the insane person not even knowing how to write the names but has learned enough to know about the landlord thing? Nah
Ah yes, that well-known communist Carl Mark.
And his fierce rival, Chairman Mow.
