Build houses for the rich out of stone and don't let them tear them down or
break them, just... Keep building them until our housing problem goes away. We
all could be kings if we lived sustainably.

If something is expensive, then we should build more of it an a sustainable
rate until its not expensive. Sustainable being the key word here.

what's that? a bunch of houses burnt down in california? what if we built a
couple warehouses and stored all our trans girls in bunkbeds there, with rooms
for LAN parties and snuggle parties in rooms full of stuffed buddies plushies
with massive kitchens and sad ballpits where you can go to vent your feelings
by writing on a ball with a sharpie and then when someone else is feeling sad
they can come and read the balls and maybe feel something

Suburbs are how they keep the land from blowing away when their unsustainable
agriculture processes stripped all the soil from the land and there's no
profitable reason to keep it in place. So they build houses and outsource the
land management to people who are forced by HOAs to have lawns.

Every resource of your enemy is a resource they have not yet given to you.
We will not accept a king. We do not consent. They have made playthings of our
feelings for far too long. The planet is in peril, our oceans are soon to be
unfit to swim in.
It is their doing.
They know who they are.
They are afraid.

true, but building a house will never cost 100$. Maybe 100,000$, and at that
point you could build but a few.
Meanwhile, they're throwing around millions of dollars. we're not measured on
the same scale as they are, and if we ever dip our toes into their end they
will bite them off.
If supply and demand were real laws that guided our economy, then wages would
have gone up after COVID, because so many people died. Housing would have
gotten cheaper, because fewer people were living in them. Food would have
gotten less expensive, because people were growing their own vegetables and
baking their own bread while they spent months isolating themselves. But alas.
