    Fascism aside, who thought it was a good tactic to simulate homelessness as a protest tactic in the US?

    Americans hate homelessness so much that they’re okay with government spending more on the issue because, while cruel policies are more expensive, we collectively like the cruelty.

        That’s true, but one can look at historical protest movements and learn ways to be more effective about this. MLK and Malcolm X were exceedingly strategic in what they did.

        Or hire The Satanic Temple to do it for you. They’re better at protests than anyone else.

        Simulating homelessness is a shit tactic.
