Something can be both better than it was and still need improvement. I personally advocated for repealing CH (though not with Weinstein’s language, which was nuts), and for building more housing in my neighborhood. Big fan of making 10% rent increases untenable for landlords.
You: big fan of the 10% rent cap! Also you: big fan of making the 10% rent cap untenable 🥴🥴🥴
learn to read: I’m a big fan of making 10% rent **increases** (not caps) untenable for landlords. Market power vs legal power. These are different things.
You have just told the world that you don’t understand what rent cap means…when we say cap the rent we are referring to annual rent increases There’s an entire campaign around this w/ the Keep LA Housed Coalition…try to keep up
is your reading comprehension really that bad?
Said the dude who just claimed that LA cannot expand its existing rent control ordinance to cap the rent at 3% Where do you even live that you felt the need to mansplain LA rent control to me?

You’re not gonna move the goal post, mansplainer You claimed that our cap the rent at 3% campaign is impossible because of Costa Hawkins…you’re not gonna deflect your way out of accountability for your lies
This thread started because you were yelling at folk who want the same thing you want re CH, who literally went to Sacramento to advocate for repeal legislatively, all because they didn’t advocate for a shittier version of the repeal that would have been abused by NIMBYs You’re a know-nothing
The Apartment Owners Association shills do not want what I want
Yes I understand that you believe that sharing 80% of your opinions re housing makes me a horrible person and that you will (unfortunately) accomplish nothing because you have zero clue how to build a coalition.
I’m someone who has knocked on over 10,000 doors…you’re not an organizer so stfu
organizing is great. If only you didn’t actively shit on folk who are fighting for much of the same thing you’re fighting for.
Go look up the Keep LA Housed Coalition and come back when you’re ready to admit that you’re wrong about expanding LA’s existing rent control ordinance to cap the rent at 3%
ah, so you’re only talking about 120k properties in all of LA? I thought your ambitions were bigger. My apologies.
You’re not gonna move the goal post, mansplainer You claimed that our cap the rent at 3% campaign is impossible because of Costa Hawkins…you’re not gonna deflect your way out of accountability for your lies
not my fault you’re bad at explaining what you’re advocating for.
There you go again, trying to deflect rather than simply admitting that you are wrong about rent control here in Los Angeles Big incel energy
Your stated goal of 0-3% LA-specific rent control is literally impossible until Costa Hawkins is repealed, and you’ve spent much of the last two days yelling at folk who are aligned with that goal. All for, what, internet points? Unhinged shit.
You can’t be serious bruh Look up the Keep LA Housed coalition You’re absolutely WRONG - the City of LA can expand its existing rent control ordinance in some ways, you’re embarrassing yourself
good luck.
Keep LA Housed Coalition would LOVE to have you mansplain how our entire rent control campaign is impossible because of Costa Hawkins! Do share your expertise with the coalition: www.instagram.com/keeplahoused...
