Saying that they are "choosing" to sleep in public spaces, and calling them zoo animals is horrible.
There are 2 types of homeless individuals, the blatant ones that absolutely don't gaf and ones that are more discreet and try to hide from public view. I didn't call them zoo animals, the commenter before me did. We are all technically all animals though and the liberal government elites of California along with the liberals like the commenter I was responding to treat the homeless like zoo animals. Think about it: the liberals refuse to make any systematic change and need to continue the status quo and believe handing out food and needles will help the homeless. It's pure evil at this point, wake up!
You keep going on about liberals, are you okay? The alternatives are conservatives, who are objectively worse for all homeless people. Or, if you're a russian tankie trying to split the leftist vote, some candidate who will get 1.2% of the vote and never be able to enact policy.
FWIW I'm not American, but in Norway we use liberal policy towards this, and have no homeless crisis. Not either of your two types. We recognise people need help, and help them.
This isn't a partisan issue, it's a fundamental problem with a hypercapitalist society that disregards human life, and demonizes the wrong people.
I'll try and wake up, though. ;)
Liberals in California defend the neo liberal economic policies of Reagan that cause the hyper capitalist society that disregards human life. The progressives demand the return to new deal policies of post WW2 era that created the great middle class only this time we want it applied to all not just the whites!
In USA it's not just liberals vs conservatives. Progressives like Bernie Sanders are actively getting chased out by corporate owned liberals. Hope this gives you some insights into why the Democrat party in USA is splintered.
Liberals are not who they say they are, they are part of the problem and use the 2 party system to force people to vote for them when they are just Republican lite (unless they are progressives like Bernie, Mamdani, or AOC)
