Does having an AirBNB setup make someone deserving of the guillotine or does that only apply to owners of multiple houses? What about apartments?

Please explain your reasoning as well.

I own a flat that I rent out to people who make similar amounts of money as I do.

That allows me to take a lower paid job that allows me to do more open source work.

I agree with your second paragraph.

And coal plants provide power and heat to millions of people, that doesn't make it right. The ends do not justify the means.

I'm renting to people who rent as a convenience, not because they can't afford to buy a flat. I offered them decreased rent during COVID and they declined.
