@invisiblepeopletv: “If we really care about homelessness, if we really care about trying to solve a complex issue, then I have to realize that my capacity to serve you has to be rooted in a love that only knows radical acceptance. And if I actually live radical acceptance, if I actually accept that your life is just as valuable as mine, if I am totally anchored in compassion, I realize this work is never going to be a relationship between healer and wounded. It's a relationship between equals. It's only when I know my own darkness that I can be presence and the darkness of others. And when I know that darkness and the presence of others, at least I can say to them, "Hey buddy. I know how to turn on the lights. I know the way out.” ~ Iain De Jong

This argument falls short, because if I’m poor, I immediately lose access to modern healthcare practices

the problem is they're not in the game for love. they're in it for money, unfortunately

I was taught, when we have extra we build longer tables not taller fences.

Bobby :
When a large portion of the population is convinced that mental health issues, addiction, poverty, and homelessness are moral failings, it’s hard to be optimistic about our collective humanity.

Completely agree. How can we expect someone to "clean up their act" when they're homeless? When you wake up with a roof over your head in a clean bed, it's a lot easier to get everything else sorted

Homelessness is not about radical acceptance. It’s about a bipartisan robbery of housing by private equity, gobbling up the market and renting it back to people who’d rather buy but can’t afford it…

This is a bad take. If you're dying from a heart attack it's worth treating you because you're about to die anyways. They do a lot of things during emergencies they wouldn't do if they have time
