What's most blackpilling about this situation, IMO, is that 90% of Americans will observe the same thing as you did, and immediately blame the victims for the deplorable slum conditions at these hotels. Landlords and capitalists feast off our suffering and then convince us to hate the victim instead of the oppressor. Or, as Malcolm X put it far more eloquently,

> If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.

The average American will use these conditions that violate basic human rights as a reason to support even more austerity. Oh, just look at what *those people* do when we give them nice things. They just destroy them! Surely we must cut what little remains of the social safety net. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps! (willfully ignorant that the whole point of that idiom is that it is impossible)

We are a country populated mostly by demons, with no semblance of morality left whatsoever. The only American value that remains is greed. Glad there's still a few good ones left out there like you, OP. I wish you the best of luck in trying to make things a bit less awful in your neck of the woods. But you must know, it's an uphill battle when you're living in a failed state. This thing we call America is dead already.
