When I search for this, it's hard to look past the poverty, people who's dwellings are handmade and have no documentation. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace

I guess 50 million people living in real poverty is just a statistic.
For all the illegal comments, these dirt poor people living in slums are also living illegally. They probably have no formal property documentation.
- rsj_hn 6y agoWhat "illegal comments" are you referring to?
- aaron695 6y agoComparing it to human slavery and other illegal things and saying Facebook would remove that so why not this. In reality a lot of Brazil runs off selling land not based on documentation, which is technically illegal, but it's also peoples entire lives, the shack they built on a hill is theirs and for Facebook to remove the right to sell that is not a small thing.
