Clearing homeless camps isn't addressing homelessness, it's just further traumatizing already traumatized people by destroying what little they have left, it won't solve any issues, but it's a show of force. That's fascism right there, the state won't help, only punish. But doesn't he look COOL!?

It is appropriate that keyfabe is used more and more to describe this. McMahon really did a number on the US.

You can't effectively address homelessness until you consciously decide that unproductive people are not inherently worthless. Our society values people by their net worth, and conflates it with merit. People first have to accept that homeless people don't DESERVE to be homeless.

people are enjoying him using trumps own rhetoric style against trump, but I think he's just a little TOO comfortable with it all

I was just thinking, yesterday: "It's good that he's fighting Twitler, but we shouldn't forget that Newsom was personally dismantling homeless camps just months ago. He's not entirely on our side."

He's barely partially on our side. He's on his own side, and that side is against someone who's against us. The enemy of my enemy is a potential asset in some situations as long as he keeps attacking my enemy and I prepare for his suddenly inevitable betrayal.

I'd say he's not at all on our side. It's a fascistic show of force and an attempt at a power grab.

Yeah... I'm sure an alarming number think so. I think he looks like someone who's willing to own his involvement fully in perpetuity, who's making a bet it will be considered acceptable/positive "tough on ___" cred. Not sure that's going to be the case with how much economic disruption is ahead.

No, he looks like a jackass, taking time out of his day to not only do nothing, but to make things worse. He's like one of those jagoffs who picks up trash one time at the beach and thinks that entitles him to a lifetime of throwing garbage everywhere he goes.
