Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

There are homes in most areas that are well under 400k. Housing obviously needs to be cheaper but it's not nearly as bad as the fediverse memes make it seem.
My father told me with a straight face that a 3k a month apartment is ridiculous, because you can buy a house with that.
So yes, the memes are out there for a reason.
Because people make shit up.
That's still nearly 7 full years of salary, in a world where people struggle to save even 10% of their take-home salary.
Not the point. It's making shit up.
