I don’t think just because people are landlords that makes them bastards though. We’re letting a house out and I think we treat our tenants well. We don’t rip them off, we fix stuff when it’s broken, and since we have a fixed rate mortgage our costs haven’t gone up in several years and so neither has the rent.
Why do you have an extra house when others don't even have 1?
Unless you are from an impoverished area of the world and could barely afford the ten year old phone you're posting this on, I don't think you want to go down this path.
Not really. If we're living at or below a standard that is attainable for us all, then we're not part of the problem.
We don't have to go off into the woods or subsistence farm. That's a distraction put by the ruling class for useful idiots to believe so they think it's all-or-nothing.
Magnitude matters. Just because you have more doesn't mean you need to spend more, and that's what the people you're defending are doing.
That said, I live a very modest life in a very modest area. I could spend more, if I wanted to. I could make more if I took more advantage of others. I choose not to because that would make me part of the culture we should be trying to change.
