Why does it matter that some people shriek? These places have been controlled for decades with supermajorities by people that share your beliefs. I think the results speak for themselves. We need rules for society and if you don’t follow them you should be punished. It’s really that simple.
- drekk 3y agoIt's really unfortunate to see the same tribal shit-flinging on HN. Both parties are wings of the same bird. They work in the interest of their donor base, not their constituents. Commodifying housing and criminalizing homelessness is exactly that. Putting "your people" in charge won't change that. > But the poor person does not exist as an inescapable fact of destiny. His or her existence is not politically neutral, and it is not ethically innocent. The poor are a by-product of the system in which we live and for which we are responsible. They are marginalized by our social and cultural world. They are the oppressed, exploited proletariat, robbed of the fruit of their labor and despoiled of their humanity. Hence the poverty of the poor is not a call to generous relief action, but a demand that we go and build a different social order. - Gustavo Gutiérrez
