more infuriatingly rage-inducing than trying to explain why rent control is bad to someone who isn't mentally capable of engaging with the argument. I had to self-ban from a website at one point over this for the sake of my sanity.
I see the poors are pretending to be big wallet niggas again est. 2016
Hello, welcome to 'I see the poors are pretending to be big wallet gangstas again'
This hole exists as a safe space for refugees from the Facebook(MetaTM groups of the same name. Of which there have been several iterations. We mostly exist to poke fun at the state of living in poverty. While it oftentimes is unavoidable, we do aspire to not be meanspirited. Over the years we have co-opted the term 'Peak Poor' to being someone who exudes poverty, regardless of their actual net worth. Trump and Elon both exhibit the peak poor ethos from time to time while still being the top 0.000001%. You can do something peak poor and still be a good person or a generally adjusted one. We all have a bit of poor in us.
We basically fill a niche similar to fatpeoplehate with a bit less actual malice.
PeakPoor is shotgunning mountain dews at 5 years old.
PeakPoor is not people dying of poverty. While technically the greatest heights of poverty is succumbing to it this is not funny, and is a failure
of capitalism. We do not make fun of poverty to be mean spirited such as that.
Read the room, if it's punching down too hard or really digging into someone whos a sympathetic character it doesn't belong here. (basically READ THE ROOM)
Sitewide rules apply
other rules
Subscribe to this hole, it's important that we get our numbers up. Love numbers = peak poor
Bonus points for making your post title some variation of peak poor. (Pinnacle of Poverty, Prowess of the Penniless)
I am looking for a mod who will help me grow this place and encourage the facebook community where the majoryity of our members reside
to migrate. Contact me if interested.
I really do love you all so very much, i'm even spending drama coin to get some banners and marseys. thanks for being a part of the community.

i had my first rent increase back in 2022
no landlord has ever done that to me before
i started reading the letter and was bracing to be infuriated and mentally apologize to /r/antiwork for everything
then on the second page was the actual amount it was being increased by and it was $15
2023 i got a $20 increase

I love how commies think economics exist simply as a human construct lol.
There are economic laws, which is why you know, commie price controls have never worked.
Or when commies declare inflation "illegal" the inflation doesnt go away.

If they understood economics they wouldn't be commies in the first place

Don't worry, if restricting the supply doesn't bring down prices, the government can always subsidize demand.

It's like when Erdogan fought inflation by dropping interest rates. I see why leftoids like Islam.

Literally everything is a "human construct". That phrase is constantly used by r-slurs to act like they're saying something smart.

There are hard economic laws that exist.

But economic isn't doebiet
It's an emergent phenomenon, the result of a bunch of individuals following simple rules
Trying to control it is like trying to control gravity
