Does having an AirBNB setup make someone deserving of the guillotine or does that only apply to owners of multiple houses? What about apartments?

Please explain your reasoning as well.

We don't really have corporate landlords, as far as I know. Can you link to a source? Also, what country are you in? Maybe it's different there.

According to a quick search it seems home ownership is even lower in the down under than they are in the Americas, a region deeply oppressed by rampant landlordism. There's a not-insignificant chance you're currently paying rent to a corporation and not even know it. (or more likely to your parents, this is Lemmy after all)

I think you need to brush up on your media literacy a little bit there. (downvote wasn't mine, it was someone else)

Not sure what you mean by media literacy. In Australia 95% of dwellings are owned by individuals/families.
