  1. First of all, there is no housing crisis.

  2. Housing is not in crisis.

  3. Housing needs no trauma counselors.

  4. Housing needs no lawyers. Housing needs no comrades or friends. Housing needs no representatives. Housing needs no organizers.

  5. When we call this crisis a housing crisis, it benefits the people who design housing, who build housing, who profit from housing, not the people who live in it.

  6. It encourages us to think in abstractions, in numbers, in interchangeable “units,” and not about people, or about power.

  7. We don’t have a housing crisis. We have a tenants’ rights crisis.
