If you wanna get a flat in Berlin it is not uncommon to find 100 other people when you look for a flat.

Technically this is supply and demand at play that pushes the prices into fantasy land. Which means after years you will have locals thrown out of their flats because the prices have risen so drastically that only few landlords will take their tenants side.

Markets don’t value social stabilty and don’t give a damn about who lived there for how many generations and what they did for that place.

Is the rage of the displaced morally justified? Can a system that produces such results be desireable for a society as a whole?

A good way to avoid people being displaced is to build enough housing to meet the demand, however there's lots of (probably well intentioned) efforts which undermine this goal, most of the people voting for these things which undermine this goal are the people who originally live there themselves, so in my opinion the rage isn't justified
