That's right if we got rid of consumer goods we'd end homelessness. Fucking brilliant there mate.

Have you "spent some time in UK homeless shelters" in the same way that Robert Jenrick MP "spent time" in Handsworth, Birmingham before delivering his withering critique of multiculturalism? 🤔

The homeless people I interact with are more concerned with eating and not freezing to death than the suspicuously articulate arguments you have put in their mouths.

@SunshineGirl No, I've been in the stations of both being homeless myself, and providing the homeless with food on an industrial level. And my degree is concerned with the provision of health services on the levels of populations. So, I give it a lot of thought.
What an absolute load of bull. On Universal Credit all I get is £600 a month.

@BritishFailedAesthetic I am well aware that isn't much, and that's even more reason not to spend it on drugs on tattoos.
@Therealsteve I don't. The amount doesn't even help cover the rent and bills. Why the hell would I spend it on that then?

Thank God for having an African and a Mediterranean style family.

Yeah, let's go by your BS sample size to get a view on overarching large-scale economic and societal issues.
GeistInTheMachine · 31-35, M
@Therealsteve So a degree in neoliberalism, basically? Yeah, sounds like BS to me, especially with the way you're going about it.

Boggles the mind why you would get a degree in that, with how dimly you view people in that kind of desperate situation.

@Therealsteve I remember you now, you're the guy who doesn't understand graphs! 🤣

@Therealsteve Well you did make a post for no other reason than to defend the hurt feelings of the wealthy elite, most likely under the delusion that you think you have any chance of being one someday even though you are always far closer to being unhoused and broke.
Therealsteve · 31-35, M
@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow I don't care for the feelings of the "wealthy elite", either.

"even though you are always far closer to being unhoused and broke.". Indeed. That would be one of the laws of existence, based heavily on the pareto principle. It's much easier to tear something down than to create it. And it's why a lot of people take this stance of "I'm tearing down this oppressive thing!" instead of CREATING something that uplifts people. It is the natural state of entropy to be in decline and so yes one will always be close to being broke.

"most likely under the delusion ". "My argument is what I want to assume is true and that assumption is those who disagree with me are deluded" haha xD
@Therealsteve It is not about feelings although your position is. Everything I stated is factual.


And you want to justify inequality with fairytales rags to riches.

"Pulling yourself up by your bootstraps" originally was a criticism of these fairytales because doing so is literally impossible.


And it is only basic logic that you live under the delusion that one day you will be one of them because it is the only way someone can be delusional enough to justify a system screwing them over too.

You are the slave justifying the slave master.

And when you give away free food and money the homeless increases
