I remember seeing a documentary about this when i was a kid. I think it was called “batteries not included”
Wtf. I’ve never heard of this. It’s crazy.
there’s a lotta US history that would radicalize people that has been washed away by american oligarchs over the decades
The first true “headline” of landlords committing arson would likely be the arrest of 8 landlords, detailed in the New York Times in 1975.[31] Among these were the highly-publicized case of Imre Oberlander and Yishai Webber, two Brooklyn-based landlords who were caught driving to one of their buildings whilst wearing blackface, explosives in tow.[32] Critically, none of these landlords were black or Latino. The landlords profited greatly off their insurance policies; Oberlander, for example, had collected $125,000 (over $750,000 in 2026) in payouts from twenty-one separate fires between 1970 and 1975.
It was a slow-motion white collar riot
Is it “by by”, or bye bye.
