I admit my wpm is pretty slow

you are not being charitable or intellectually honest

if i don't answer just @ me

you are redefining terminology to avoid the meat of the argument

@Deleted User how so?

''i own a MOP''

a computer and brain is not a means of production in this context

yes i have the means to produce something

that isn't an abstract idiom you dingus

MOP != Things that produce things

🤔

it refers to tools and instruments/land used within a market economy that produces commodities or services necessary to create value

its like rentiong out a house

Oops

I dont do anything

and I get money from it

Dictionary definition fallacy on that capitalism

@herb to be fair someone who rents out a house usually does manage the property and many associated things

@R O M S O C アナーキー fallacy fallacy

??

@Brandod fallacy fallacy go shoot yourself in the fucking head

@herb my neighbors love renting their house because the owner takes care of maintenance and repairs

@Deleted Account 81241290a0u523 oof

to be able to rent out

bat, I recognize that is anecdotal

it neeeds to be profitable

you are literaly leeching of people

yup, you can make a profit and the convenience is still worth it for many people

it isn't immorral to provide a convenience to those that will pay for it

it by definition isnt worth it but people have to survive therefore it becomes exploitative

is it wrong to shoe shine?

you didnt make the house you are renting out

if you're starving to death and i offer you a burger for 3000000 dollars do you think this is a mutual and fair transaction?

so you arent providing

you merely own it

it would still be there

@herb @Deleted User Guys, we use too much Marxist jargonism, let's simplify

if you didnt own it

@herb you are providing the convenience of not dealing with all of the maintenance and bills yourself in some cases

not all landlords are the same

in some cases
