Expropriate their asses instead.
They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet.

I am delighted to finally see this volume that I, @lucaspoy.bsky.social , and fourteen other authors have been working on for a few years (without any external funding, it should be added), as a printed book. This is likely the first international anthology on the history of tenant organising.
