It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

the maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry
This is so fucking funny! They are blaming it on the “Venezuelan gang”. Hahahahhahaha
'We're just trying to share our homes, make a decent living and just, you know, have a normal life.'
Oh fuck off, being a land owner isn’t a job. Eat shit, Karen.
I don't want to be perceived as a racist, so let me just express my full hearted support for all violent supergangs, migrant or not!
Martiz said her suspicions were first raised when she heard multiple voices coming through on her Ring doorbell camera
I hope she gets sued for insane privacy violations, too.
this is great
That is minor damage, lmao. Also this is not "stunning" compared to other properties in the area. Half of all Colorado vacation homes are designed for giant family reunions and having 16 people stay in an ugly, giant house. The only permanent damage was gum in the carpet. They just put chairs on tables, moved some furniture, left a frankly obscene amount of bottles, and didn't put trash in a dumpster.
I guess "Group of foreign youth leave moderate disorder after ordinary party" don't have the same ring as headline.
"Group of young tourists" even (I feel like right wingers would still get triggered over "foreign")
The rule of "as soon as you step foot in another country for fun you become a horrible person" is proven right yet again
But for Martiz, the experience has put her off ever renting out the property again.
Sounds like they did good work, here.
Update: the migrant thing was made up by the sheriff. Theres no evidence it was a gang whatsoever.
The reason: racist political propaganda
It also gave a slumlord an indefinite delay on the legal actions against him for being a slumlord.
What a rotten society
Tren de Aragua is now an all purpose excuse in Colorado. Who made the slumlord not collect the trash? Tren de Aragua. Who messed up the Airbnb with a wild party? Tren de Aragua. Who pooped my pants? Tren de Aragua.
Who made the slumlord not collect the trash? Tren de Aragua
Didn't someone (Liberation News maybe?) go there and it basically turned out to be this? Like slumlords were using it as an excuse to basically never visit the properties or do basic repairs.
Yeah, that slumlord was the start of this current round of "Venezuelan supergang taking over Aurora, CO" hysteria. He's been doing slumlord shit for years and the state finally decided to do some kind of enforcement so he made up this Tren de Aragua story.
Tren de Aragua
New MS 13 just dropped
Weird that this doesn't stop reactionary media outlets from reporting it as fact anyway 
Police funding is on the ballot in Colorado so they need to manufacture some fear rn

If only they'd killed the landlord 
one day товарищ one day...
trashed
my god, they left a bowl of chips on the table, how will she ever recover.
My coffee table is messier than that right now and I spent all last two days playing the wind waker and eating pie.
Fr like that's the worst picture she has?
Wtf is that headline…oh…it’s Daily Mail.
hey quick question did you charge a cleaning fee?
This is my favorite election season boogeyman so far. How do they know it was the supergang that partied there? House doesn't even look that "trashed". This shit happens in every city w Airbnb but this time it was a BLOODTHIRSTY SUPERGANG, which is a great band name btw
don't charge $200 up front as a "cleaning fee" and maybe they won't leave a few things for you to clean up!
Literally. A bunch of friends and I rented a summerhouse for a week for what was basically a week-long bender. We had to pay about 650$ upfront for a non-optional "cleaning fee" that wasn't included in the price of the house. I say up front, but it wasn't. It was a real shady procedure, but we didn't complain because we booked it last minute due to a natural disaster destroying the familial home of a friend of a friend, which was where we were supposed to go, and besides the place was about 500$ cheaper than all like places, so we only ended getting scammed for 150$ (enbie math)
We didn't trash the place, but we also didn't take any special effort not to make it dirty. Especially not with that outrageous fee, it made us assume they had professional cleaners or something. On the day of check-out a single elderly lady shows up to clean. It's obvious it's a sidegig for her to pay her bills, she couldn't even lift chairs. I don't know what the fuck they were thinking. I don't think she got paid more than 80-100$ either.
We do as much as we can to help her before our transport picks us up, but... We were 12 people being drunk af for a week and she had arthritis. She told us someone was coming to help her, but I doubt it. I think she probably cleaned for an hour and left, I imagine that was the deal she had with the landlord who owned 7 houses on that road. Ghoul.
We then got a followup letter complaining about how dirty we left the place. They also tried to charge us for stuff like a dirty toaster (which we cleaned both before we used it and after we left because it was nasty) and other similar stuff that had just been broken for years probably. Luckily one of us on the trip was studying law, but like, the fucking audacity.
We ended up sending a letter detailing how shitty the house was beforehand and then explaining (as if to a baby, I did the writing, so I made sure it was sassy as shit) that if you charge a cleaning fee - especially one so damn high - then you can't complain about the place being dirty.

Landlords and not wanting to actually make use of the BS cleaning fees they charge for, a tale as old as time.
