“Settle your quarrels, come together, understand the reality of our situation, understand that fascism is already here, that people are already dying who could be saved, that generations more will live poor butchered half-lives if you fail to act.” ― George L. Jackson

Jake Flores 🇵🇸🇲🇽 Unless they send you to jail. There seems to be a move to criminalize homelessness and turn prisons into really, really expensive homeless shelters.

Exploitative vid. of unhoused ppl sleeping on the ground: "WhaTs ThE AnsWeR?" Me: "Universal healthcare that covers detox and science based rehab + therapy + medication programs and low barrier to entry universal housing with no sobriety requirements." Those same ppl: "No."

Them: Ppl are using drugs on the streets 😡 Me: Lets put them in permanent housing inside and then connect them to services that will help them quit the most addictive substance on earth that every expert agrees they need substantial medical care + therapy to quit. Them: No 😡

I understand the frustration with tents and encampments in communities, however any anger should be directed towards policymakers and government who have given people no other choice but to live rough. thespec.com/politics/provi…

Prevention solves the problem. That must be why government won't talk about it. Too much money to be made from not solving it.

Clearing encampments will never solve homelessness. It will push people into other communities and make things far worse. DO WHAT FINLAND DID They've moved away from shelters to permanent housing with support and resources. Meanwhile we punish people‼️ cbc.ca/news/canada/th…

Those in power and those closest to power want people to believe that those struggling to survive should be locked up or die while they line their pockets. It’s a distraction so they can continue doing what they want to do. Destroy our planet, destroy our cities, destroy people.

Homeless people don't make me feel unsafe, living in a world that allows homeless people to freeze to death does. #HousingFirst

This is the kind of thing you don’t actually want to be right about because people die. We have surpassed 15,000 evictions for 2024 in Denver.

Huh that's weird usually they save this kind of firepower for terrorizing old people living in tents.

I know one thing for certain ... drugs are often the answer for people with shitty lives caused by trauma, poverty, and pain. What’s worse is drugs don’t change those circumstances, they just make them bearable. When will we address the underlying issues instead of blaming

If you still trust the U.S. government to “hold police accountable” — let alone bring about any form of “justice”— you might want to consider why you are so dependent on & trusting of a state that is intrinsically built on genocidal violence.

🚨 This is the biggest scandal in news media history: No employee at Politico got paid yesterday. First time ever the company missed a pay period. This is a crisis. Now we learn Politico — a “news company” — which spent the last 10 years trying to destroy the MAGA Movement was

As a child I loved school. A safe place for learning and exploring — and an escape form home. Now kids and families are afraid to attend schools, are returning home to no parents, watching parents get arrested and smoke bombs flying into doors. #thelandofthefree

Homelessness isn’t just a loss of shelter—it breaks your body, your mind, and your hope. Jocelyn ♡ made it out once, but if she became homeless again today she says she wouldn’t survive: invisiblepeople.tv/if-i-became-ho…
