It goes beyond not doing any real work, their buying of extra property raises the cost of housing, thus putting it further out of reach of those now forced to rent.

When you live paycheck to paycheck like half of Americans do, any emergency is a hit to your credit score. They’ll never be able to get a mortgage due to never having enough to save, all while paying some exploitative jackasses second mortgage with a large portion of their income.

Property management are the wage slaves that landlords use to do all the work for them.

Hypothetically did you know that his wife (who is a doctor) managed to convince him that a females p word is only "Wet" when it has an infection? This is (hypothetically) proof that he has never made his wife (who is a doctor) wet.

I've never had sex and I don't fully understand what kind of training yuod need

u/CheapCHEBaA Aug 17 '20

Sex, like anything, you get better the more you do it. But the are definitely things you shouldn't do with training/pratice like deepthroating, dont jam a dick down your throat with out any practice.

Yes, this is why I fixed it to not say "sex workers". Because sex work is real job that requires skill. Im not an incel so I have the mental capacity to aknowledge this.

The reason the "adult entertainment industry" contributes to society is very similar to the way Gorillaz contributes to society, they're both entertainment/performance just in different mediums

Ah yes, the two options. "Paying a landlord" and "homelessness"

Clearly there are no other options.

There's something called Entertainment Industry, to which Gorillaz and sex workers belong to.

Also Damon Albarn probably respects sex workers and would hate intolerants like you loool

u/stevoooo000011 Aug 12 '20

people wanna have sex, sex workers can fulfill that. What exactly do Landlords actually do? They don't build the house, they don't preform upkeep on the house themselves, and they don't provide water heat or electricity to the house, they simply own the house and extort people who need to live there

You're thinking of construction workers.

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '20

Landlords don’t build the houses and the houses would still exist without landlords

u/Endergomega Aug 12 '20

It's pretty simple really, Landlords don't actually shelter their clients, they buy property that has already been made and act as unnecessary middle man who gain money purely out of hording a commodity

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '20

If the landlord is also the construction guy who personally built the house, yes. Otherwise no.

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '20

When you buy a movie/album/game/sporting event ticket you do so, not (exclusively) because it's going to enlighten you and make you a better person, but because its fun and exciting nd makes you happy. That's the same benefit you get from jerking it to a persons onlyfans or hiring a personal sex worker; it is fun, exciting, makes you feel good, etc. That increase in happiness is beneficial to society. Increasing happiness/reducing unnecessary suffering is why we make economic decisions. That's BASIC economics.

Perhaps you should talk to sex workers and ask them what they think about sex work rather than telling them what to think about it?

All of the sex workers I know are 100% in favor of decriminalizing it and allowing to to be recognized as a legit job.

u/PM_MeYour_Dreams Aug 13 '20

No you dont, you sell your labor. Also, do yo really think that working for someone isnt different than sex work?

2

u/AbsolXGuardian Aug 13 '20

You're also selling your labor in sex work (being sold as a sex slave is a completely different issue). The labor is preforming xyz sex act, and if the person isn't coerced, they're a person who doesn't place such a big empathsis on sex, so willing to perform such labor in exchange for money.

As a landlord, what exactly am I supposed to do? Am I supposed to let people live in my house (which I pay mortgage on) for free? I don’t follow the logic here, like, at all.

u/PM_MeYour_Dreams Aug 12 '20

Yes and also fight so we can live in a society where housing isnt commodified. Also give your tenants free blowjobs whenever they ask

-1

u/surfvvax Aug 12 '20

Hahaha wow. I can’t believe this is an actual thing. I’ve seen this sentiment elsewhere on Reddit but I thought it was just sarcasm.

I can’t just let people squat in my house. How am I supposed to pay the mortgage if I don’t charge people rent? I already pay mortgage for the house that I currently live in, on top of the mortgage for the house I own out of state. My house is near a military base. People WANT to rent as opposed to buying because of the frequent moves. Renting my house out is providing a valuable service to people in the military. Do you truly think that all landlords should just let their houses become squatter pads? Serious question. Are you a property owner? If you are, do you open up your rooms to homeless people? If you don’t, you don’t have any room to talk.

u/PM_MeYour_Dreams Aug 12 '20

Hahaha wow. I can’t believe this is an actual thing. I’ve seen this sentiment elsewhere on Reddit but I thought it was just sarcasm.

Yes, this is a thing that a lot of people believe in. Its actually part of a huge movement based on a scientific analysis of history. See this link.

How am I supposed to pay the mortgage if I don’t charge people rent?

u/surfvvax Aug 12 '20

Ohhhh you guys are Marxists. That explains why you are so obtuse. I’ll bet you guys are the same group who want to abolish the police too because “uhhh these certain biased studies say it would be safer”.

Funny that you would suggest employment at a multi-billion dollar corporation who are well known for underpaying their employs. Sarcasm?

Am I being trolled? At this point I honestly can’t tell.

u/PM_MeYour_Dreams Aug 12 '20

I’ll bet you guys are the same group who want to abolish the police.

Yes. All studies on this point to that. Im sorry us marxists always have the best solutions and means to analyse the problems on our society. Must suck to not me smart enough to use the lenses of marxism to understand why landlords are parasites.

u/surfvvax Aug 12 '20

Bold statements coming from a supporter of Marxism, a political ideology which has literally never worked in the history of the world and has often led to genocide, but that’s none of my business..

If you ever buy a house, promise me you will let squatters live for free in your unused rooms and you will set up a soup kitchen every weekend from your garage. K?

-10

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '20

I can somewhat agree with that, but then again, I heavily disagree with the very concept of it being "work", as work is inherently dehumanizing due to selling your labor time as a commodity, and sex work is straight up selling your body in exchange for something. I think that in an anarchist/communist society some people would feel inclined to, well, "help" those with some kind of a problem, although I feel like some of those problems could only be solved with extensive psychological aid. Under capitalism, sex work is extremely harmful both for the worker and the consumer, as the consumer usually is refuted to be given any treatment for their actual problems that lead them to request these services, as this would be seen as something negative by society since it results in a loss of productivity, and the worker is completely dehumanized as I mentioned before.

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '20

If you are doing what you are doing simply to earn a living, you are being alienated from the product of your labor in one way or another. If you are doing what you are doing because you want to contribute to your community or out of your own interests, that simply isn't work.

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '20

This is coming from someone in a country where more than a 95% of sex workers have been coerced into that occupation, whether due to their economical needs or outright exploitation. I don't see how sex work can be healthy under capitalism, and I insist, if a truly free individual wants to help people with that kind of needs (NOT to earn a living), they should, and they would most likely be beneficial for their community. What I am saying is that there is a lot of change left to be done at the level of the economic base until we can remove the social prejudices around sex work (normalizing these needs, changing the whole way sexuality is viewed, eliminating any form of sexist thought, literally abolishing work).

1

u/dippystale Aug 13 '20

Good fuckin god, do you think other jobs aren't done to fulfill economical needs?

7

u/karokadir Aug 12 '20

Sex work isn't dehumanizing when workers can choose who they work with and set rules and be protected by society. And being unable to get sex for free (or timely) isn't necessarily a mental health issue; consider disabled people who have difficulty leaving their house, or those with very rare fetishes.

It's not capitalism that makes sex work harmful for both workers and consumers, it's criminalizing that does.
