𝐿𝒶𝓃𝒶 "not yet begun to fight"
Skyrocketing rents is a deliberate choice made by the older generations to deliberately move wealth from the younger generations to the older generations.
Any choice we make, we can also unmake.

@mattly @Lana It *is* ageist. It's a gross generalization. Just because many landlords are old doesn't mean it's an action of the older generation
Look at the homeless and vehicle-dwelling population in your city. You're going to find A LOT of old people. Because Social Security and SSDI/SSI do not pay enough to live on to be able to even use all of your income on rent. If "the older generation" had all the money, they wouldn't be there
It's more accurate to say rich people are stealing wealth
