It's wrong to have an unjustified low opinions of tenants as a class. They are normal, well-meaning, intelligent people like any other.

- quesera 1y agos/tenants/humans/g The large majority of tenants do not read their lease paperwork carefully enough for this clause to make a difference. A large majority of humans don't read EULAs. A lease clause is useless for liability, because your landlord's insurance won't be able to shake down the tenant anyway. Someday soon enough, your insurance might require a clause like that. It will still be ignored by tenants though.
- tgsovlerkhgsel 1y agoAnd the "intelligent" part makes them realize that you get absolutely nowhere if you try to strictly follow all rules (there's a reason why "work to rule" is an effective sabotage strategy), and that the path of least resistance is to sign and ignore it.
- dylan604 1y agoIt’s not unjustified. I’m a tenant. I don’t read all of the clauses. I’m a normal well meaning intelligent person. Does not change anything about what I said.
