The scumbag also owns the Logan Theater.
Fishman sent her maintenance man to deliver a ten-day eviction notice to her door.
Yeah, that’s not legal. Hope the tenant finds a good lawyer.
Mun. Code Ch. 5-12-170: Under the 2020 revisions of the RLTO (“Fair Notice Ordinance”), Landlords must provide a tenant that is not in the eviction process: • 30 days of notice to terminate a month-to-month tenancy, decline to renew your lease or raise your rent if you have lived in your apartment for less than six months. • 60 days of notice for the same if you have lived in your apartment for more than six months but less than three years.
One of the high-points in my life was having a landlord show up with the local sheriffs to try and force an eviction that up until this point had only been verbal. I happily showed them the state’s tenant laws that said “30 days after written notice is provided” and had a lawyer friend on speed dial if they had any questions. Landlord got so belligerent that the sheriffs escorted them off instead.
Also a PSA: If you rent, know your rights.
But it’s the tankies that are authoritarian…
If you think authoritarianism exists on a single side of the political spectrum, you’re likely brainwashed.
Is killing Nazis authoritarian? If so is every “authoritarian” measure equal?
A government ordering the killing of any group (political, ethnic, etc) abandoning due process for the individuals is authoritarian.
That doesn’t answer the question though. If a government ordered the killing of Nazis that would be very different than a government enforcing the eviction of someone displaying a flag in solidarity with people being genocided by Nazis.
You do realize how those two things are different right?
Those aren’t mutually exclusive to define authoritarianism. I wouldn’t expect someone from hexbear to come with a good faith debate though.
Okay lets back this up a step, I made a comment pointing out the authoritarian nature of capitalism which allows the shit like what happened in the OP.
You come in trying to both sides this shit.
So are you defending landlords? Because this is obviously fucked up and the landlord in question (and all other landlords imo) should be dispossessed of their property which would be an “authoritarian” measure.
authoritarian nature of capitalism
Plenty of instances of communists doing the same shit. Please refer to my original post.
Authoritarianism is not tied to political ideology. Authoritarianism takes advantage of whatever the political environment is. To think one environment doesn’t allow for authoritarianism while the other does is extremely naive. This isn’t a “both sides” argument, this is an argument that you incorrectly associate authoritarianism with only capitalism.
I don’t know how else I can explain this to you, so this will be my last response.
That doesn’t answer the question though.
Yes it absolutely does. Your question was “Is killing Nazis authoritarian?”
Okay so is it?
This is a really weird interpretation of authoritarianism… authoritarian regimes often enforce their authority through ‘due’ process.
I think the point op is making is that liberal democracies defer authority to capital and enforces it on their behalf. There’s a temptation to consider liberalism to be less authoritarian because of this deferral but it’s mostly just a slight-of-hand
Well said.
Another very illustrative example of this kind of deferral and obfuscation played by liberal democracies with their use of authoritarianism is the continued use of literal slave labor specifically in the US, which is even enshrined in the constitution. The sleight-of-hand (sleight-of-tongue?) comes from shifting the term slavery into euphemisms for prison labor. A slave population of “prisoners,” the vast majority of whom are People of Color, mostly black people, as is the slavery tradition, who are actually pipelined from their schools to prison, and criminalized for engaging in the only means they have of economic independence. The authoritarian slave drivers will tell the general populace they are “bad people, felons” and deserve to be sequestered away from society to live solitary lives doing hard labor for no pay (2 cents an hour doesn’t count as pay.)
There is nothing more “authoritarian” than having actual slaves, which is the major reason the prison-industrial complex exists in the US and has more prisoners (read: slaves) than any other country in the world both in absolute numbers and per capita by a ridiculously large margin. That is capitalist-style authoritarianism.
Right on.
I think lemmy is filled with a lot of people who (maybe) understand this in fewer words. Case-in-point: there are plenty here who are acknowledging this dynamic played out through landlords and ownership of private property.
Making the leap from understanding that type of authority to the authority utilized by AES countries takes some time for some. Similar in the way reactionaries interpret Foucault’s description of institutionalized power as inherently negative, power exercised by the state isn’t inherently bad, either, especially when the alternative is allowing capitalists to claim it for themselves.
Pointing out that suppressive authority exists even in the liberal democracies that nominally espouse ‘freedom’ is a good first step but far from the last. The Tienanmen square thing is… well it definitely gets in the way of that conversation. It’s a bit of a socialist’s Godwin’s Law.
The Soviets killed Nazis. They were simultaneously one of the most brutal regimes in history, especially under the leader (Stalin) that had the Nazis killed
Calling the Soviets, the people who liberated the concentration camps and lifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty one of the “most brutal regimes in history” is literally Nazi propaganda. Stop repeating Nazi propaganda.
Liberals love free speech until you bring up their settler projects
