People dislike actual data so much, in this case they have flagged the item because it goes counter to their narrative.
The actual article is from the quite biased libertarian Reason Magazine: https://reason.com/2024/09/26/rents-fall-and-listings-increa..., but it's being laundered through msn.com, which obscures that.
No it isn't. The GP accused the flaggers of flagging it for ideological reasons, because it goes "counter to their narrative." I'm saying that it's legitmate to flag because it's been posted using the wrong url, because awareness of the true source and knowledge of its biases is useful for evaluating the content.
I would say Rent Control causes more harm than good overall.
It's a failure but people wish it to be otherwise. They wish for things to spring out of the aether by wishing it so.
