This rings very true. The Eastern Bloc and the Soviet Union looked perfectly stable, and then everything collapsed like a house of cards.

“Black found the hardest part of the journey being homeless not knowing where he'd sleep.”
So, the hardest part of his homeless “journey” was the bit about not having a home. Got it.

💯 This applies to (at least IMO) newbies here & it applied to other immigrants in my German class, when I immigrated to Germany.
I refuse to stay silent whenever I see bullying, especially when myself & others are bullied by ungrateful immigrants at home & abroad.

It is easier to solve the problem than it is to criminalize those affected by it. It doesn't have to be the Ritz, it was never going to be, but adequate housing so people can have the opportunity to transition into homeownership.

RA @intheweedsHomelessness should only be "outlawed" in the sense that it should be illegal for the government to not guarantee adequate housing for everyone.02:33 PM - Apr 22, 2024
Anyone criminalizing unhoused people is an unserious person who is unfit to lead a parade, let alone a city or country.
03:05 PM - Apr 22, 2024
Yup. Free dorm rooms for everyone who wants one is far cheaper than the prison industrial complex.

While I completely agree with this sentiment we are currently living in an environment where Republicans don't want hungry children to get free hot lunch lest they get too comfortable. These same people are also the ones profiting from incarceration and cheap prison labor. They don't want to help.

Today the Supreme Court is hearing a case on whether or not homeless people can be punished for sleeping outside when there's no shelter space available
This is the biggest case on the issue of homelessness in decades and could de facto criminalize being homeless
Extra important to remember today:

He doesn’t have any of the strikes against him that most homeless people have: addiction, mental illness, PTSD, development issues. Asshole.

So, the douche canoe decided to cos-play homelessness, couldn't even last the course, and still doesn't own the fact that he came at this performance from a place of physical, mental, and social health as well as knowledge and resources the average unhoused person wouldn't have - i.e. privilege?

And while privileged white men are often oblivious about their privileges, I'd be shocked if he didn't understand at least some of the things you cite when he started. Performative is exactly what it was.
03:10 PM - Apr 22, 2024
Of course he did. He had a ready-made safety net waiting for him as evidenced by his ability to just "quit the experiment". No one homeless or poor can just decide not to be, no matter how hard that dude want's to claim otherwise.

Trump wants to eliminate Social Security and Medicare because "people should take care of themselves."
This is the same Charlatan, the same Hypocrite, the same sanctimonious Buffon who has his election and legal bills paid by others. But he does supplement that selling documents to other countries.
