Eldritch

I've been staying at the same place for about 5 years. Initially he had a plan to build a new block next to mine and he made us sign a paper which says we are to leave when the works start.

Fast forward a couple years, nothing is done still and I'm tired to wait every year to know where I'll be living long term, so I go and ask questions at the government's tenants protection desk and they end up telling me the paper is not valid at all, that I can keep my lease after the works etc, so I told my landlord I wished to stay and he went full victim mode.

Arguing with landlords who only mention the market and how they're such nice folks for not evicting you during a global pandemic while you're trying to make them understand for a tiny second the concept of housing insecurity is draining. This pos has 26 tenants in multiple homes and is guilt tripping me because "I'm going back on my word" , which was given years ago in a different economic context.

Most likely will resolve this without having to go to court, because I'd most likely win buy I dont want this asshole to stalk me and find ways to evict me over the years. I'll have to accept an arbitrary increase in rent to shut him the hell up and plenty of other shit I'm entitled to by law but don't have the energy to fight for atm in my life. I hate this system and the west so much, Mao give me strength.
