What kind of sense of entitlement is this lmao.
Nobody owes you anything, certainly not the owner who has to bear all the risks so it’s only right for them to not take any chance and filter to the max.
Blaming the owner for choosing the best investment even though you are less wanted/attractive as an investment to the said owner is like, in a sense, asking for preferential treatment.
It’s a dog eat dog world nowadays so you can’t expect people to readily help you, much less jeopardising themselves just to help you.
All this talk about denying someone the “essentials or basic human rights” only makes sense when the owner owes that someone a duty, which obviously he/she doesn’t because he/she is not the government.
You can’t be discussing the difference in gravity between essentials and non-essentials when you have no right to expect such in the first place. That’s very presumptuous of you.
If anything you should be blaming your peers for creating that kind of perception.
Or better yet, ask why the government hasn’t done anything to tackle this issue because ultimately the government is the one responsible for the welfare of the people, not the common people.
The best short term solution is to try harder. Treat it as playing a game in hard mode. And no, other races do not get to choose either. It is what it is. Also doesn’t help when your teammates intentionally make the game harder by feeding themselves to the boss.
The force of market will fix this anyway. When there is a lack of “preferred” tenants in the market, those owners will naturally lower down their expectations.
Dont need TLDR, its irrelevant.
Though, you're absolutely right, no one owes me anything. I would not complain if the chicken rice aunty doesnt want to sell me CR. But when it comes to housing, lets just say our options are cut short drastically, and it would take one to be in our shoes to understand the frustration.
The frustration is about being denied a service based on skin color - this is called racism.
Taking certain steps to shield LL's investment by doing background checks etc - this is called Risk Mitigation
And just so you know, i never denied my "peers" can be problematic,
but its wrong to paint all of us the same.
And about the governemnt, my assumption we are such a minority that the gov doesnt warrant its a serious enough issue just because there are so few of us. Like 7%?
