an outrage to say the least

I know I should not be the person to make this point
I am after all an American and student, by no means a madrileña,
but still… I wanted to use this platform because something has to be said

It’s one thing getting hate because people say we’re the reasons rent prices are rising

but it’s another thing ENTIRELY to hear landlords are trying to bribe people out of their own homes so real estate agents can buy the building and flip it for short-term rentals…

I have no words.

Again, I shouldn’t be the spokesperson for this issue, I have no authority, but I couldn’t believe THIS was happening
