    I guarantee that by “housing” they actually mean “private estates.”

    There’s no way they let us peasants live on former parkland.

    And what that means too is that it will accomplish absolutely nothing to combat the housing crisis. It’ll just be even more land owned by rich fucks, and just one step closer to the neo-feudalism of which they dream.

      To the native animals who currently live there, all humans are rich fucks.

        That too.

        I should’ve clarified that the near certainty that “housing” is a deliberately misleading term there is more in the nature of adding insult to injury.
