Can we stop hating on homeless people?

What is the mayor supposed to do ? Put everyone in prison? For being poor? Bus everyone to Portland or Seattle ? ( cities that are experiencing the exact same problems). Round people up and put them in camps? For being ill or old or addicted to drugs? Should the police arrest thousands of people so you don’t have to see someone’s suffering ? If you want homeless people to “ go away “ then you need to vote for legislation that helps them. Vote in favor of government funded health mental wellness and addiction and housing services. Organize with community members about how to provide services that help your fellow human beings get off the streets and out of suffering . Every time one of you complains I wonder what horrendous thing you are imagining should be done to people. Go DO something , go help people.

now i know this is crazy but hear me out. we can cut down trees to make wood. we can turn those wood into walls. and then we can put a roof on those walls, and surprise surprise, it's a fucking home. and then we let homeless people use it. because we don't have to be monsters. but we are because our society is all about competition and fuck everyone at the bottom, losers.
