Landlords in LA are evicting tenants to convert apartments into Airbnbs ahead of the 2028 Olympics.

They're using a legal loophole to evict people who should be able to stay in their homes, and upending countless lives in the process.

They learned nothing from the world cup, did they? Who is crazy enough to organise another big event like that in the US?

    LA begged for this. The city doesn't care about renters. All of California is setup to benefit "natives" at the expense of new residence.

    The city's MO is to benefit landowners and suck as much money from renters as possible
