I live in a small town which is disproportionately popular with tourists. Because of this, people are hoarding property to rent out on Airbnb. I want to buy a house but will never be able to afford it unless the market is flooded with properties.

Again I'm not looking for anything illegal just some propaganda tricks to keep the tourists away for a year or two.

    Leave comically large banana peels out in the tourist streets and wait for your victims to come sliding on by 😈

    Seriously though, maybe organizing locally against it if other people feel strongly about it would be a good idea? If all else fails there's always ol' reliable (getting a pistol and shooting blanks at odd hours)

      Wait just realized you're anglo since your username has "colour". Uhh, yeah, maybe organizing with your local councils will be your best bet? You guys are really missing out on that spontaneous violence we have in the states that gives life an interesting kick.

        I don't think that's an effective way to guess where someone lives, it just suggests whether they learned the American spelling or not. From what I understand, Europe and most former British Empire colonies favouuur the British spelling. This article has a demonstrative diagram map - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_and_British_English_spelling_differences
