@michaelmalice This is what happens when people dehumanize others with labels like “Karens.” All one needs to study is the Rwandan genocide to understand why the mass adoption of derogatory labels specifying race, regardless of the hierarchy in place, lead to mob violence.

@HFLane_writing How about the fact that agents won’t show potential clients their success metrics or sales figures. Maybe some will, but all the ones I’ve asked said they would not. Imagine looking for a real estate agent and they won’t show you past sales… not a good sign.

@AmyNielsen06 I find it frustrating that agents don’t provide any success metrics of past financials or deal info. How can I know who to query if I can’t actually see the amounts they helped the authors take or the percentages etc.? Even with a hit book, the numbers could be off.
