An 87-year-old woman from Lemiers in Limburg who owned substantial real estate in nearby Vaals has left most of it to her tenants in her will.

According to the Telegraaf, Anneliese Houppermans, who earned her money from a successful fruit and vegetable business, owned several houses in the community. She never married or had children, and her ties to her family had faded over the years.

Well according to most users here on lemmy she should have been taken out into the street, lined up against a wall with her family, and summarily shot in the back of the head before she even got a chance, because this would never happen and all landlords are literally Adolf Hitler in an Elon Musk mask.

This has been a presentation of The Tankies Suck Minute™, now back to our regularly scheduled programming:

"Kill her! Landlords should be unit 731'd!"

unironically supports a landlord hoarding homes in order to rent seek just because the individual was a good person, completely ignoring the billions of workers this system exploits and kills every day

comes up with some ridiculous straw man tirade that would never exist as an argument in reality in order to blame this on “tankies”

still genuinely believes they’re a good person in spite of all this

Ah yes, all the hallmarks of a true liberal.

You do realize that it’s completely embarrassing when you liberals do this?

The thing about leftist critique of capital is that it’s all valid and based on real fucking shit that happens in real life and is verifiably true today.

When you liberals show up trying to use your cute little sneers under a facade of facts and logic, it completely self-reports how you don’t really give a shit about anything. You don’t believe in anything except yourself.

And the fact that, over and over, you remain completely oblivious to that glaring disconnect between your smug liberal superiority complex and the completely ridiculous easily debunked statements you make, honestly says more about you than what you commented.

Found the Tankie! You can try and deride me for not wanting to kill old women all you wish, but since you do want to kill old women your opinions are invalid. Go choke on rasputin's poorly preserved penis.

Tankies is very specific, murderous intent is part of it.

How can it be murder when landlords aren't people? Think, liberal, think!

Ah yes I forgot, of course lmao.

Hey, you're the guy who thinks it's okay to kill young women, you don't have a right to judge.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Nice try, you've already said the quiet part out loud and endorsed literal murder of people you literally dehumanized outright, to the person who has been saying "murder is a bad thing to do" from the start, a point you clearly took exception to. Just quit while you're behind.

The ones you say are not people in an effort to dehumanize them, remember dingus? Scroll up, you have to be able to read if you're responding to this, you can figure it out I'm sure.
