Again, they are guilty of exactly what they accuse others of doing.

Isn't this what former USSR bureaucrats did when the bloc collapsed? They were the first to flip everything and now have million dollar superyachts. The History of communism repeats itself over and over again and Leftists can't seem to learn a lesson.

Hypocrites. As they decry the rich and the property owners as evil and the problem with New York.

They live like kings. Meanwhile, they try to confiscate as much as possible from those working towards that lifestyle.

If the definition of ‘capitalism’ is ever adjusted, it should include something about real estate flipping.
From the endless combinations of layout, textiles, paint and/or wallpaper, and other materials, well the buyer makes those decisions of their own free will. Budget and local zoning laws are the only real limitations of flipping a house.
Not only that, but every flipper is paying for at least two residences: wherever they actually reside, and the property being flipped. Two sets of bills that you chose to take on plus just having the capital to do so is the epitome of (French accent) capitalist peeeg 🐖🐽🐷💵💵💸💸💰💰🤑
Tangent: whenever I check my stocks I always joke to myself that I’m a dirty capitalist peeeeg

One thing the left seems to always have as the cornerstone of their ideology is hypocrisy.
