    That sort of thing happens when us poors are constantly getting priced out of existence more and more each year. Not sure why people think cost of living skyrocketing while labor wages stagnate seems to have zero correlation here but it sure as fuck would be great if the government that is supposed to serve us would actually try to help instead of sending billions of dollars overseas to fund genocides.

    PS: housing first initiatives have a track record of working while shaming amd spitting on the homeless does not. Similarly safe drug use sites have a record of reducing use compared to shaming the homeless who struggle with addiction. But I fucking digress. Fuck this country.

    Maybe if Gavin Newsom chastises them some more they’ll come to their senses and rehouse themselves.

    (I’d like to think a sarcasm tag isn’t necessary but people really do act like they believe something like this)

    “They choose to be homeless. They have a poor person mentality instead of a rich person mentality. Just manifest wealth!” grillman

    Please, Xi…our people yearn for freedom. You can do something really, really funny if you try hard enough.
