  • feudalisms biggest enemy was capitalism. it perfected slavery and organized everyone willingly in exchange for stable trade of goods and services that they otherwise would not have access to. it lead to the industrial revolution, and its fast growth quickly convinced formerly feudal countries (like japan, as an example) to modernize their technological standards, as welll as their economies, so they could participate in that same system. out of fear of being left behind.

    obviously capitalism has its flaws, its a horrible system with an expiration date that seems to be only a few short decades away now. and ironically its likely going to be surpassed by techno feudalism, or if a miracle happens, some form of democratic socialism.





  • ban MPs from owning or investing in realestate beyond a singular primary residence, and a non rental secondary residence. same goes for premiers and PMs. once you become an MP you have to live in your riding full time. if necessary you will have to sell property in order to become a public servant

    outright ban corporate ownership of single family homes and condominiums.

    give renters ownership rights over the properties they rent, they get a return based on how much of the mortgage was paid for by their rent, adjusted with inflation. if you buy a house for 200k, and sell it for 600k, and the tenant paid for 100k while they stayed there, they should get 300k as a return. fair is fair. you do not get to be rich because you signed a few papers and let someone work a whole ass career on your behalf to pay your mortgage for you.

    homes are meant to be lived in, they are not investments. we need to completely gut and remove any and all incentive to treat them as such.

    immediate rental freezes. when you sign a rental agreement, you cannot increase the amount of rent paid until the tenant willfully leaves on their own volition, or within a 5 year period. whchever comes first. if it is the same tenant, and they decide to stay, you have to perform any requested upgrades or repairs by the tenant, if you decide not to, you do not get to increase the rental price for the next five years, if they decide to stay. any recorded hostility by a landlord towards a tenant in hopes of removing the tenant and increasing the rent price for the next tenant results in a permanent ban from renting out properties. period. even if you wish to raise the rent, you can only raise it by 0.4% per year since the last contract was signed.

    “but Alloi, that doesnt keep up with inflation!”

    i know. when you offer someone the favour of letting them live on one of your properties, it is becaus eyou are doing it out of the kindness of your heart. not for profit.

    “but Alloi! people will go hungry! retirees wont be able to support themselves”

    not my fuckin problem, tenants starve to pay the rent, retirees become homeless because they cant afford rent on a pension.

    if you are a landlord driven by the idea of a “passive income” that comes off the backs of people who actually contribute to society. then you are a subhuman, parasite. and deserve zero pity. you tied yourself to a sinking ship, so sink with it.











  • tarantinos personal version of acting is putting himself in roles where he gets to say the hard R and put womens feet in his mouth. paul dano actually attempts to play whatever character hes portraying instead of living out his own personal fantasies, or using his station to live out his personal fantasies through his characters.

    paul dano is a good, if not great actor. and im assuming tarantino was considering him for a role, or just perhaps putting some feelers out to test the waters for some future collaborations, and paul dano didnt want to be pulled into the hollywood circle of former weinstein associates, women beaters, perverts, and generally unsavoury “old” hollywood types that seem to orbit tarantino.

    he probably said as much, either to, or around the wrong person, tarantino caught wind of it, and decided to assassinate his acting chops using the weight of his opinion.

    tarantino hasnt directed anything since the hateful eight. which was more than a decade ago.now hes just some rich sour puss/old pervert thats mad that a maturing actor likely didnt want to be pulled into the orbit of his dying stardom as a “legendary hollywood director” and instead disagrees with his character/choices rather than glazing him for a role.

    or maybe im wrong and he wanted to suck paul danos feet and he said no. why is it really news at this point? lol.
