Stephen Miller, Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, and others have taken over homes that until recently housed senior officers.

        That’s doing things, governments do that under every system. You won’t believe the houses the UK pays for its leader caste.

        Socialism is the workers owning the means of production. This is a corrupt government doing corrupt things so chickenshit cowards can feel important.

          The uk doesn’t generally provide housing. It does provide a monetary allowance for those that don’t have a primary residence near Westminster. Places like downing st are for the convenience of the state, not the politician, like the White House. The royals, on the other hand…

          This is very different. This is people getting given government housing because they are feeling unwelcome in the community. It’s hypocritical and, as the article points out, it’s pushing out the people this housing was designed to accomodate.

          Of course it’s not really socialism, as it’s not for everyone. The point is the state is proving their wants (not needs) while they deny the needs of others.
