Don’t vote and help their much worse fascist opponents get elected instead, which will affect the general population, not the wealthy elites. That’ll teach them!
Harm reduction is a myth, people have been preaching harm reduction for decades and there’s been no reduction in harm. Quite the opposite, poverty has increased. Homelessness is at a rate not seen since the Great depression, income inequality is the highest ever recorded. The most percentage of people living paycheck to paycheck is higher than any other level recorded. There has been no reduction in harm.
Wasn’t homelessness during the great depression roughly at a percentage rate of 1.5% of the nation (upwards of 2 million people)? Are you sure we have a homeless rate not seen since the great depression? As for all the other stuff…yeah that’s pretty bad, especially the income inequality over the decades and decades.
Let’s see. The government tells us that poverty is trending down for decades, yet the number of people living paycheck to paycheck has been increasing. The number of renters that cannot afford their rent has been increasing, homelessness is at the largest level ever recorded, but the claim is poverty is decreasing. Have you ever stopped to consider? Maybe they are lying?
Ah so you’re doing that disingenuous bullshit where you’re saying the TOTAL number of homeless has gone up while intentionally implying you meant the homelessness RATE has gone up.
Guess what? Our POPULATION has gone up over the past hundred years too.
Even just looking at pure numerical data, only last year did the number of homeless edge above the 2012 level, which is the earliest we have good data for. There’s no way in hell it’s beating out 2009-2011 after free great recession, much less the great depression.
As for poverty, it’s currently around HALF of our earliest data from 1925. Trending down steadily.
Capitalism has its problems, but trying to paint a picture of life getting worse over time is absolutely bullshit.

Either way the working class gets fucked
You’re correct. But they get fucked much harder one way than the other. It’s all about harm reduction.

You are now just blatantly lying. Poverty and homelessness has been trending down for decades.
Let’s see. The government tells us that poverty is trending down for decades, yet the number of people living paycheck to paycheck has been increasing. The number of renters that cannot afford their rent has been increasing, homelessness is at the largest level ever recorded, but the claim is poverty is decreasing. Have you ever stopped to consider?

More damn lies.
No it’s not.
No it’s not.
Not even close.
You got any sources for your bullshit, other than “my ass”?
2016 Paycheck to paycheck rate 38%
2020 Paycheck to paycheck rate 63%
2023 paycheck to paycheck rate 78%, up 6% since 2022
50% of renters cant afford their rent
Hopelessness at record level
NPR article about record homelessness
I won’t say you are lying, but ignorant of the facts.
