After thinking about your post, I see where I am wrong.
Joining out of some form of necessity is one thing, but to have fallen so far as to perform or knowingly enable the actions you’ve described is unforgivable even if your own freedom from prison or family economy is at stake. It was tone deaf of me to even remotely equate those things and my original post was poorly thought out.
The only point I made originally I will defend is this: We should not be wishing mental illness, homelessness/poverty, or drug addiction on anyone. I refuse to believe this is what Communist justice looks like.
No probs comrade, I also agree that we should not be wishing additional suffering on these people, and should provide all the social services, both mental and economic, necessary for them to recuperate and re-integrate into society.
