I mean props to them for using the well documented "equating farmer (owns land) with farmer (does farm work)", it does usually trick people
not only this, but I think most of the people moved by this song are middle class anyway, and they don’t view owning property as any sort of privilege. I’ve already gotten one guy going “well actually the bank technically owns it and he’s paying it off.” Like bruh, have you ever talked to an actual poor person?
Rocking up the working class bank to get a loan for a 90 acre property
nah, i hear if you tell them you've never worked a day in your life and plan to suck the teat of the state forever, they'll just give you a -1000% loan with a one cent down payment
and then you can just get your 90 acres.
remember, it's the homeless who are the real landlords.
