You can't throw someone out of their home without notice because you have a business dispute with some third party.
...for leasing to a hotel chain that later went bankrupt?

It's a hotel. Hotels typically have less tenant rights than long-term accommodations.
No, the story in the great-grandparent's post is not about a hotel, it's about a residential lease where:
1. They were paying rent to a property management company who managed a building's apartments.
2. The property management company stopped paying rent to the building owner.
3. The building owner had the police throw out every person living in those apartments with 0 day notice.
The person at fault is #2 - the property management company. That is who the building owner's dispute is with. It is criminal that the people who were thrown out onto the street with zero notice were the tenants who have up to this point upheld their end of the agreement.
The bar for getting thrown out of your home should be far higher than the bar for getting thrown out of your hotel room.
