People frequently state the statistic about the number of empty houses and apartments versus the number of homeless.
There are 27.4 Empty Homes for Each Homeless Person in the U.S
Well, there’s about a million times more empty parking spots versus people living in their car.
I am not going to debate all the little strawmen arguments you want to make.
I currently live in my car and life is a pain in the ass. I see a billion parking spots where I should be able to park and be safe and enjoy a quiet night but I cannot park there.
Nearly every church has enormous parking lots that are just empty at night. You can’t park there either.
Fuck your naysaying pessimism! Fuck off I won’t reply to you anymore, asshole!
I genuinely hope you find somewhere safe to sleep tonight. And look into more of those safe havens you linked, or start organizing your community to develop one. I get that it’s easy to be pissed at me for shooting down something that smells a little hopeful. But I’m not who you should be mad at. You should be mad at the people who lied to you so you’d believe tech bros and business people can and will provide for those worst off in our society. Only community can provide that without a corrupted motivation and there are even places here on lemmy with resources that can help. I’m sorry I sparked what seems like something you’re passionately invested in. Again, I genuinely hope you find somewhere safe and permanent.
