    If the place you’re renting gets struck by lightning and burns down

    That’s what insurance is for.

    or you go to prison and it falls into disrepair, or the properties get raided and seized for some reason

    Ah, the classic “all renters are criminals” while opinioning on the “value” landlords provide.

      Insurance isn’t a magic fix-all, mate. Also, lmao, I was implying that if any of those three things happened to the property owner it would be worse off, yet you failed to parse that and instead construed something about renters being criminals? Bro those were your words, and I think you’re wrong to think that way about renters.

        “I didn’t say they are criminals! I just said what if something exceedingly rare happens to them that only happens to criminals? Checkmate!”

          I’ll go really slow for you.

          I said if a landlord goes to prison or the property gets raided and seized then it is worse for them than if a renter has the same circuimstance.

          Do you see the part where I singled out renters? No? Then where did that come from? You said that. That was you. You stupid mf.
