liberalism as an ideology is fundamentally unable to address the housing affordability crisis because liberal ideology considers it to be just as bad, if not worse, for people to lose money on their housing investments as it is for most working class people to not be able to afford a house.

so you see liberals wracking their brains going "how do we bring down the cost of housing..... without bringing down the value of anyone's housing investments????" which is a fundamentally unsquareable circle, since "the cost of housing" and "the value of housing investments" are quite literally the same thing.

thus the confusion and bewilderment with China's 3 Red Lines policy - "bwuaugh????? China deliberately pushed Evergrande into bankruptcy anf crashed the housing market?? are they crazy? dont they know they're making Line Go Down????" because these clowns forget that economic metrics are a tool, a means to the end of promoting human well-being, not an end unto themselves.

(also a lot of the economic talking heads who express this confusion are stock traders who live entirely off investments and have never done a day of work in their life, and cant even imagine the idea of an economy that isn't run primarily for the benefit of parasites such as themselves.)

my most toxic trait is i fucking love work gossip. i play neutral not to be the bigger person or take the high road but to hear slander and hearsay from every side. two coworkers complained about each other to me in the same afternoon and i nearly blacked out from the rush
