at least in theory, id rather go homeless and be inevitably thrown in prison i think but thats just me

yes, until they revoke women's right to vote, and then the right for women to work outside the home, then ban birth control, as stated in their little project book. then you become desperate enough to survive that youre willing to be anchored to a husband and kids.

āThe number of unhoused people is still 3 times that of the number of shelter bedsā āCaliforniaās shelters are almost twice as deadly as its jails, with over 2,000 people dying while staying in shelters between 2018 and 2024.ā Clearing camps without a real functioning system is a death sentence.

just like credit scores and the internet, this shit wasnt a thing before millenials. my mom has never had to drug test even when she was a teenager working at subway. its shitty and im tired of it being an automatic expectation. if you have cause, sure, ask for the test. dont accuse people wo cause.
no (@juniperknock.bsky.social) reply parent
like there is no dignity or privacy in preemptive drug testing, it reflects badly on the business because it insinuates theyve had problems with hiring the wrong people through bad prof. vetting, and it sets a precedent of humiliation for the working relationship right off the bat

there are no resources, thats why that part is phrased so vaguely. shelters and resources for homeless people are almost never approved. hes making it sound like hes taking positive action but i think its literally impossible at that scale.

'dismantling' is a clear and actionable verb. they are saying they will physically destroy these peoples belongings and where they sleep. what does 'expanding access' mean?

'expanding access' does not mean there is enough of the thing being accessed, actually. he isnt building more shelters because if he was, it would just say that.
no (@juniperknock.bsky.social) reply parent
What the hell does 'creating bigger access to shelter' mean and why does it make you think there are shelters to go to?
no (@juniperknock.bsky.social) reply parent
do you think shelters are plentiful in california?? easier to find in los angeles or sf, maybe. but most towns and cities ('local governments') dont have the resources and wont want them thanks to nimyism.
no (@juniperknock.bsky.social) reply parent
another way to help homelessness is to address the foster care system, considering how many homeless people are foster children themselves with no families or support system.
no (@juniperknock.bsky.social) reply parent
during the pandemic, my ex's job was to convert places that were not meant to be long term housing into shelters for homeless people. they could stay in such luxurious locations as a motel 6 in compton for six weeks, or an abandoned military base im hesperia where temps get over 120.

its to reinforce the belief that they are persecuted and actually the victims in society, when people respond unfavorably to things like public preaching or door to door converting. Its a tactic to keep the religious and their families in the fold and to inflame paranoia.
