The landlord class is very powerful and they use that power to suppress the housing supply so if collective bargaining puts them out of the game that's a good thing!

It still isn't "collective bargaining" when you all have different landlords.
On top of that, "puts them out of the game" means that there are no apartments to rent. And it wouldn't even work because you'd not only still have the non-landlord homeowners lobbying to suppressing the housing supply, you'd have the banks making sure you can't actually wipe out the landlords since the landlords owe them way too much money for things to happen that way.
