Canada

Where I live, houses that people can afford to buy are purchased by these entrepreneur grindset wannabe amateur landlords and then rented out at a higher price than the mortgage to the same people who would have bought the property otherwise (which must always be the case when you think about it, otherwise there's no profit). I understand not ALL landlords are this type of scum, but she is a landlord and she is this type of scum. Hence the epithet.

Also, consider being a bit more cautious about who you tell to "check their privilege", as I'm pretty clearly defending people with less money against people with more of it. For all you know, I'm a renter living below the poverty line. My opinion, exactly as I've expressed it, is shared by many people in that situation. Even if your argument was 100% correct in all situations, it's obvious that my heart was in the place of defending lesser privilege, even if I really was misunderstanding the economic implications of landlords not existing.
