Hot take: I feel like most homeless people should just get [REDACTED]. Or like rounded up and dumped as far away from society as possible. This isn't a classist thing, and we absolutely do need an equitable society that doesn't sustain itself on capitalist coercion of being rendered homeless if not complying with the system. However, the majority of homeless people I see/deal with are (a) actually insane, (b) addicted to substances, (c) usually both. ---They aren't simply downtrodden members of society trying to get back on their feet; They're nuisances which are incapable of existing within society. And, quite frankly, I'm tired of coexisting with them. I don't want to sit in a public cafeteria eating a meal while some unkempt, unwashed wacko in a wheelchair is screaming profanities at nothing and pulling himself around the room with his hands raised like he's surrending to someone whilst mumbling to himself. This dude isn't getting rehabilitated and he now exists as some sort of human pollution or societal litter and I'd like for him to be removed.

Christmas Sun (sun@shitposter.world)'s status on Tuesday, 17-Dec-2024 02:06:21 JST Christmas Sun @adiz Around 60% of homeless in the USA get back out of homelessness within a year. Of the number that get back out, about 1/4 of them are homeless again in two years.
It appears that somewhat over half the people experiencing homelessness get back on their feet.
20% are chronically homeless, which are probably the people you're talking about. Your post seems pretty harsh but I agree with the idea that there's not some duty as a citizen you have to tolerate having all public places destroyed by crazy dangerous people. -

I'm talking about the homeless people who are forever-homeless because they're insane and won't ever recover or function within the system. I'm sure most "normal" people who are homeless are probably in shelter whereas the wackos I deal with are amongst the public because the shelters even told them to GTFO.
