  • There are more empty homes than homeless people. There is no housing shortage, it’s a myth. Put benches, public transport, walkable infrastructure, bike infrastructure, etc everywhere. And then when those dastardly evil homeless people show up and dare to use your person-centric infrastructure to exist, that’s when you ambush them with a house. What better way to punish them than to strip them of their homeless identity? We’ll brutally steal their homelessness from them, feed them, clothe them, and then they won’t feel any need to sleep on our nice benches ever again.

    Does this framing help you understand or does it have to actually involve violence against the downtrodden for you to be on board?






  • I just don’t understand why it’s necessary to be a nuisance to other people inside their homes at any hour on any day, outside of necessary rare events such as work being done on the house with power tools. I manage to live my life without creating a noise that could conceivably wake someone at any hour of any day more than once a month or two. I view people blasting loud music, letting their dogs bark for hours on end, mowing lawns with deafening machinery, and so on as the equivalent of walking around my house banging pots and pans together. I know you think of it as “necessary” but I assure you that it isn’t. You’re loud because you don’t care about the disturbance you cause people, not because you truly have to be.






  • You only got replies from hexbear haters so let me balance it out a bit. Hexbear is by far the most LGBT+ friendly instance in the fediverse and has a supermajority of queer users. They’re aggressively anti-bigotry in all its forms and are extremely happy to educate and engage in discussions as long as you approach them in good faith.

    Most people who go out of their way to shit talk them in the wild are just mad hexbear banned them for saying some racist or homophobic shit
