> A lot of real-world economic segregation is directly linked the housing market Yes. > ... and then the leftists actively support i No, they don't. Liberals (which really means neoliberals) support it. Here's a helpful diagram: <--------- Left ------ Center ------- Right -------------> +-------------------------+------------------------------+ } Cares about People | Cares about Property | +-------------------------+------------------------------+ | Leftists/Progressives | (Neo)liberals | +-------------------------+------------------------------+ | Socialism | Capitalism | +-------------------------+--------------+---------------+ | Materialism | Idealism | +-------------------------+--------------+---------------+ | | Democrats | Republicans | +-------------------------+--------------+---------------+ Actual leftists want everyone to have access to affordable housing and realize that landlords are anathema to that. Leftists believe in "social housing", which is the government providing a significant portion of housing stock to guarantee shelter. Leftists also generally believe in "personal property" not "private property". That is, you can own your own home but you can't hoard housing. How successful NIMBYism is in the US just shows you how normative right-wing attitudes are. done
