That wasn’t just a movie scene. That was reality during the Russian revolution. If you were wealthy or a Kulak, your home and assets were seized and redistributed. You would be lucky if they didn’t make you disappear or if you actually got a room in your own home.
The difference here is that for the moment they don’t have the power (yet) to take your homes by force.
Of course their plea does not apply to them or their friends, only to the average citizens.

I wonder if, down the line, they’ll try some sort of eminent domain scheme. They won’t take your whole house. Just any “spare rooms” you might have.
Isn’t it completely nuts how it is happening here in the US? White is the new Kulaks. It is interesting where those exiled religious leaders picked up right where they landed and spread Christianity throughout Eastern Europe.
Civil Asset Forfeiture is a handy concept/weapon for the Statists. This would be a perfect example for when the SJWs get total control.
