Leftist Infighting: A community dedicated to allowing leftists to vent their frustrations
57 readers

The purpose of this community is sort of a "work out your frustrations by letting it all out" where different leftist tendencies can vent their frustrations with one another and more assertively and directly challenge one another. Hostility is allowed, but any racist, fascist, or reactionary crap wont be tolerated, nor will explicit threats.

Reeducation can only work so much. For smaller landlords, (people who decided to move and rent out their old house for example) "reeducation" could work fine. Teach them the effects of their actions, show them compassion.
However, larger landlords know exactly what they are doing. People who are landlords as a career, they know exactly what they are doing. They know how their actions affect the working class, they don't give a shit.
I'm not saying put them all in extermination camps. But they certainly cannot be taught the error of their ways.
It could always be done Mao style, where we don't kill the landlords ourselves but do nothing to stop the screwed over tenants from ripping them apart limb by limb.
That's sorta how I feel about everything like this. Like, obviously as an anarchist I don't support rounding up the billionaires and politicians and landlords and executing them, but also I'm cool with looking the other way while those who've been screwed over by them get justice
