I can't stand HOAs!! Shoutout to ashleytheebarroness for breaking this down! HOAs weren’t built for community. They were built for control. When segregation became illegal, exclusion just changed form. Rules replaced signs. Fines replaced force. Lawns, noise, paint, guests, parking all became ways to police who belongs. It’s private governance with no public accountability, protecting property values by regulating people. Same logic as redlining. Just cleaner paperwork. #hoa #fyp #mgthemortgageguy #americanhistory blackhistory
