Totally agree, I was wondering how other countries go about dealing with homeless a couple days ago. I currently have pulled up (but haven't read yet) a 20 page policy review on Dutch strategies to combat homelessness. I'm sure in someways they are much more progressive but in others more conservative.

What I've found is that in many places in Western Europe, they simply wouldn't tolerate homeless living in public parks like in DC but at the same time probably provide much more safety net obviously. I'm just curious how they treat that underlying baseline that seems to exist everywhere.

It is also license.

​

Right wing media person bitches about something unimportant, other media personalities have to do it too or the culture war isn't enforced. Some people who never thought about it are mad for the first time, people who always disliked it but never saw a weakness in the social approach to an issue now see a place they can attack and do.

​

My boss is a DC media personality. I assure you he only complains about these events because other right wing personalities did first, and he never thought about it before despite knowing they existed. He created nothing. Others here did create the fake outrage, making real outrage, and their viewers have been angry but quiet. Neither group is good.

So I watched the documentary: “This Place Rules” and there’s this MAGA/Q bonehead going on and on with “All Democrats are pedofiles, bla bla bla” and then…this happens. 😳

TBH, I wasn’t surprised, but my jaw dropped all the same. Normal people don’t obsess about pedophilia.

This shit has gotten really sick. I really hope to be there to help shield the kids from this nonsense.

Put construction paper blocking the windows so the kids don’t see what goes on that day.
