    Give companies the right to buy blocks of residential housing, remove rent increase caps, kick out those who can’t afford rent anymore, send the now homeless to privately owned prisons -> maximum profit for the rich!

      I’ve heard my own family members advocate for using weapons against homeless people stealing, and they are liberal. The hatred exists in much more Americans than you probably think, and they aren’t all conservative.

      Americans are extremely violent people, Supreme Court just confirms that.

        There a few groups that modern society loves to hate on and a brief one line ahy:

        1. Ex-convicts and prisoners - They did something wrong and should not have any rights!
        2. Immigrants - They are taking our jobs/causing this cost of living crisis with their foreign culture.
        3. Poor people - Maybe if they were responsible they wouldn’t be living in a tent.
        4. The LGBT community - Ew, perverts.

    Modern self-proclaimed “conservatives” are incapable of shame. Its one of the requirements.

    These are the people that tell scientists that the proven science they benefit from every day is bullshit because they feel that the reality is different, proudly, arrogantly, and with a straight face.

      Homeless people are too poor to grift, too burnt-out to press gang into forced labor, and too numerous to ignore. What’s a conservative to do except a little light genocide?

        This isn’t necessarily a bad thing for some people. Sometimes people get stuck somewhere away from support networks without enough money to get back. As long as there is due diligence to ensure that there’s someone suitable on the other end of the bus ride, it can be a win-win for everyone involved. Where it gets problematic is when communities harass homeless people into taking the bus tickets and make them someone else’s problem.

        Homelessness is a complex problem. There is never going to be just one solution. It needs to be addressed with a variety of solutions that can address individual needs.

    Why should they be ashamed? I don’t want some bum sleeping in front of my bagel shop.

    HUMANITY should be ashamed of this. They’re running news stories about a SC justice’s wife flying flags at one of their multiple homes and we still harass poor folk on park benches?

    Demolish the planet and build the bypass already.
