What is the point of this? That's an honest question.
What outcome or emotion are you trying to elicit?
We're all pretty fucking sick of being told homelessness is our fault (it isn't), or that we need to be patient with people stealing our bikes or pooping behind our house (we don't), or that homeless people are victims (they aren't).
What are you trying to achieve here? A chuckle? It's patently unfunny.
Why do we need to "solve homelessness" before we stop the bad actors in the homeless community from fucking up everyone's shit (including other homeless people, who are frequent victims of....homeless people).
Why?
Edit: figured you all would just downvote instead of answer. Par for the course in this city's subreddit. Keep patting yourselves on the back - your downvote was definitely a valuable contribution to the conversation, really for sure! This city is on-track to being unlivable - parts of it already look like a warzone, and that's not hyperbole. Get out of your bubbles. We don't have to find the perfect solution to end homelessness before we stop parasites and predators (yes, they really actually exist) from harming the community.
Yeah , I just really think it takes to walk a few steps in downtown and you see a bunch of needles. People don’t care unless it directly affects them . The needles can be contaminated with HIV what if a little kid walking down the street wearing sandals , now during the summer gets poke ?!?
And not to mention the defecation in the streets , outside the office I work at it is a everyday thing to find a turd outside. And not to mention the constant fear that someone parking in front of my house will leave a mess that I can be responsable for .
Currently I have one living near by both young and healthy looking they lived in there for so long now they should been able to save a lot of money to rent a place but i don’t know if they work to be honest or if they even want to rent a place to begin wit. I truly think that is the way the want it to be by now
