Is this post saying that if the landlord CAN afford the house without you paying rent, then it's justified, and in that case they ARE providing you housing?

In the same way GPU and game console scalpers were generously, out of the goodness of their heart providing GPUs and game consoles to the masses.

Thank the lord for scalpers, honestly. Glad they were able to help some people get their stuff!

Yeah I had the same thought, this post doesn't make a very good anti-landlord argument if in the case the renters stop paying, then both they and the landlord lose their homes.
