I'm sorry your neighbourhood's getting gentrified. That's an incredibly shitty thing to live through. You're blaming the wrong people.

Tech workers aren't "enabling landlords" by ... paying rent? not asking their bosses for a paycut? any more than you are. Landlords are fucking you and tech workers over by raising prices as high as they possibly can. You getting fucked worse than tech workers doesn't mean you're not in the same class as them. You're in the same class because you both work for a living instead of owning things for a living. I'm not trying to victim blame here, organising is hard, risky and often doesn't work, but the only way not to "enable landlords" and keep prices down, would be a rent strike, which would benefit you, the people the landlords are trying to force out, and the tech workers. Not having solidarity with your fellow workers is actively harmful to your situation.

And again, you live in the fucking USA, having an attitude of "I won't have solidarity with my fellow workers because they're enabling the capitalists who are fucking me over by continuing to buy from them" is ridiculous. By that logic, I, and the vast majority of the workers of the world, should be ardently wishing you go eat a bullet. But I'm not, and socialists in general, don't because that's an utterly counterproductive attitude. If you want someone to have solidarity with you, you need to have solidarity with them, and without a united working class we're never going to get anything done.
