That's the struggle every day, Pooptart. Every day; and in a system that doesn't want me to.
Then who are you? Do you even know who you are as a person if you don't have the ethics to make a stand? Do you just meh all over your morals? Just give up on everything you believe? Or is it that you don't have morals, and you're just making excuses?

Sorry, but I couldn't live with myself if I made my outcome better by hurting others.
And I'm a combat vet. I've learned through my mistakes what I'm willing to live with on my conscience. It's guided who I've become since then.
If you're willing to give up your morals, ethics and self-consciousness for money, then I'd like to get in an octagon to teach you the difference between me and you.
We're in a game. There are fake rules. Fake borders. Fake laws. It's all made up. You can play, or not play. Try to tear it down, that's awesome.
Everyone playing a game should be trying to win though. Morals? Ethics? It's a game, don't you get it?

That's a pretty short term view you have there. Good luck.
Short term? Do you own acres of land you're learning how to sustainably subsistence farm on?

What you're saying is akin to Jews that were selling out their peers in Nazi concentration camps. Because you're just playing the game you're in, right? That's not your fault, right? You're excusing doing horrible acts for personal survival. You're no better than any Nazi trying to excuse their horrible choices during the Nuremberg trials.

Weird way of asking for 5 stars, but ok. ^/s^

Airbnb used to be great.. I could rent out a spare room and make a bit of cash. Then the developers, and the people who weren't responsible enough to be landlords had to make houses that were all AirBnb.
Why don't these places vet Airbnbs instead of straight banning it. Owner occupied dwellings should get a pass.
I remember when it was about renting your place for a few days when you were traveling

I said hate the game didn't I? Stop concerning yourself with the cowards looking out for their own skin, and bring down the system then. What exactly are you doing about it?

So you're saying "what are you doing to stop me"? Because you literally said you're on the side of succumbing to fascism and giving up. My favorite idea of doing something about it is putting you in your red and white shorts and meeting you in the octagon as a show that selfish cunts can be beaten.

Oh yeah. Here I'm just a silly little installation wizard who contributes here attempting to be meaningful and provide conversation nuggets. In real life I'm playing that balancing act between ethics, my resources/influence, and trying to not burn out.
I've done plenty of things based off of morals without it being the "smart" or most personally beneficial decision. AirBnB just isn't one of those due to how much I can save and put towards local restaurants, bars, and tipping when I finally vacation. I also don't trust hotel corps to use my money ethically, and have used an AirBnB maybe once a year on average. I'm hoping I can have another actual vacation soon since it has been 4 years.
Also, I strongly believe that my responsibility is taking care of my wife and family first, then community/political contribution.
What about you? Where do you stay when traveling where there aren't friends or family?

If you stop the game, the player stops too. I'd think that's obvious.

I don't travel. Like, at all. The most I travel is the 20 miles it takes to get my kid from his mom's house. I don't need the luxury of burning CO2 and ruining the housing market to have a good time.

Change the game, then. If you were a real player, you'd have the influence or ability to end the game. You're just making excuses to keep going as normal.

Shouldnt have sold your home to a parasite corporation then, doesnt sound very anarchist to me. Then gets angry and enshittifies their city with spraypaint, people from barca aren't the brightest bunch.

You are a combat vet? And you are here criticizing people for renting and teaching about morals? Holy molly, people have weird values.

Neat! I'm glad you are comfortable within your bubble.
On a different tonal note, it's very impressive you have the resources to single-handedly ruin the housing market, but choose not to. /s
I'm satisfied being well below average in CO2 contribution. I need to see new places in person, and that need serves me much better than putting all my efforts into lowering the CO2 average consumption by another -0.002 kg/year.

You were a combat vet invading someone's country for personal gain and fuck knows what other fucked up shit you did, you cant say shit about not hurting others

Yeah sure...violence is always the answer....

Are you lobotomised? Obviously the author doesn't own the house duh

It is absolutely possible to go on vacation without oppressing or exploiting others. It happens all the time. You can avoid Airbnbs and stay in a hotel, camp, sleep in a car, or just stay home.
I really don't understand how you came to the conclusion that you cease possession of something the moment you end physical contact with it. You're gonna have to walk me through that one if you want to actually argue that point.
If there's no state to protect your possession, you are the one responsible for protecting it. The moment you lose physical contact, you cannot protect it. Unless you put traps all over your house to deter an invader.
I don't see how in a stateless society you could go on vacation without the fear of your home being "stolen" when you return.
-
If property doesn’t exist, you can’t go on vacation though.
We're getting dangerously close to "under Communism, you will share a toothbrush"
We'll. Since I'm uneducated, you could try explaining why I'm wrong instead of making fun of me.
