Are you taking it too literally or am I not taking it literally enough? Whenever I see stuff like this it never registered that the author is trying to say landlords shouldn’t exist just that the people who call being a landlord their job are a problem. I’ve rented a lot throughout my short years and having a landlord who has some extra property they’re trying to make a buck off are pretty decent it’s the ones who treat it like their 9-5 I’ve had problems with.
