Housing Bubble 2: Return of the Ugly @lemmy.world•Exclusive | UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson fatally shot outside of Hilton hotel in NYC: sourcesEnglish
101·2 years agoBro you’re not some profound thinker. People understand it could be for another reason. But what little details we have, use of a silencer, waited for that specific person, points to it not being. Regardless it’s still karmic justice what ever the real reason is.

9·2 years agoYeah bro that’s totally what you meant which is why you didn’t express these reservations until now but did morally admonish anyone that celebrated and even threw in some veiled threats about being banned for inciting violence.

7·2 years agoAnd the usual normal reasonable line regarding violent rhetoric is plausible threats of violence. And hate speech is defined usually as hatred toward a marginalized group of a protected class. I.e. we know exactly what hate speech is, we don’t have broad definitions that you can apply surreptitiously after the fact to people like billionaire or police.

201·2 years agoHe’s the head of one of the largest healthcare providers in the country and the murder appears to be politically motivated. It absolutely is politics. It’s like thinking JKFs assassination wasn’t politics because it was a lone gunman.
And being happy he’s dead isn’t an attack on a person or an appeal to violence. You and the mods at news are just uncomfortable with confronting the resentment people have after being exploited and abused by people like him for years. It’s expressing emotions.
You want to pretend you have the moral high ground because you will only express civility. Sorry, but people do not have to be reverential to a man who kicked their teeth in everyday and is literally responsible for thousands of deaths. You’re simply trying to disrupt the camaraderie being built by people that might rise up against the people you bootlick.

31·2 years agoCan you not read? A settler hired him so that the land could be stolen. There’s still human remains in there. Maybe read the article or educate yourself on the situation if you don’t want to be called out as a genocidal ghoul.

1·2 years agoSure, but for how hot the market supposedly is, there shouldn’t really be any. There’s a growing body of evidence that landlords are “warehousing” or intentionally keeping homes off the market to keep prices high because they’re making all their money in appreciation, not rent.

Housing Bubble 2: Return of the Ugly @lemmy.world•Tokyo is the fashion capital of the world in large part due to low rents.English
2·2 years agoI’m not sure what they mean by cheap, but the tailors and shoe cobblers are saying this themselves. They might just be talking about commercial real estate rents. I certainly don’t see the teeny tiny shops that are packed next to each other almost like a shanty town in Manhattan or Beverly Hills so maybe per square foot it’s comparable but you’re not being forced to rent 10,000 square feet.
