      bigots deserve to be houseless

      Eliminating homelessness goes a long way towards curbing bigotry. It’s far easier to exploit and abuse folks with no permanent place to live. And our propaganda machine loves to pin problems produced by structural failures on the victims.

      Once you house the homeless, a lot of the low hanging fruit of fascist agitation fades away. And a significant pool of young, uneducated, easily exploitable people are no longer in easy reach to radicalize.
