    Nobody’s homeless because they want to be

    Everyone deserves a home

    Have loser tendencies and should be monitored by the government for being so heartles, gutless, and utterly consumed by hatred and cynicism. Individuals who would rather bootlick their rulers instead of helping their fellow man. Individuals who are as cold as a banker's heart believing the neo-liberal dream by chugging the kool-aid.

    Disgusting.

    Y'all in here posturing for strangers online s*** makes me sick to my whole f***ing stomach

    I dare one of y'all for a month just open your home up to a homeless nigga. Do it, y'all care that much, make your home a halfway house.

    you gotta at least see where people coming from. their responses aren't coming outta thin air

    when you say something questionable or down right f***ed up it isn't posturing when people call it out

    Agree that everyone deserves a home. But can also say there are people who legit prefer being homeless because of mental health, but also because they have more freedom than being tied down to bills. A lot of nomad lifestyles use this logic and air bnb hop while doing seasonal jobs. But also some people just prefer living on the streets because it’s where they feel comfortable

    A house is not a home

    Nah not really but I try dodging them when I’m walking

    Does this mean ‘nah not really’ like you don’t feel bad for homeless people? I’m trying to find another way to read this and can’t find it please say I’m wrong

    I work at a shelter of course i feel bad for them.

    These some of the most down and out, disenfranchised, and suppressed peoples. More than anyone they need help and compassion.

    But go ahead and go off about how if they were billionaires they'd treat you like s*** so you deserve to treat them s*** too. F***ing nerd grow up

    Homeless people aren't any more my fellow man than a billionaire. I'm a random nigga.

    You ain't ether, s***. Just because I have a staunch anti-appeasement policy for beggars means I'm pro-Bezos even though I hate billionaires, the establishment, and the like.

    I promise I've done more in my life for low income people than everyone virtue signalling ITT, and after experiencing what it's like have made up my mind.

    TL;DR Y'all really don't empathize that bad with homeless niggas, and this thread proves it. Y'all would rather denigrate strangers online than open up your house or give away your check homeless niggas- you know why.

    I see their point. I never said I don't empathize or don't donate.

    I just ain't finna support giving them s*** or building s*** just off the virtue of them being homeless.

    And if someone is ungrateful after begging you for something or feeling like you owe them something, you have a very valid reason to not want to help that person again.

    You also recognize it's posturing too tho.

    OP what did you want to get out of this thread

  • Aug 7, 2022

    My uncle is homeless and became an alcoholic after losing part of his body at work, spent all his payout money.

    His siblings have set boundaries because he has harassed them, but also still help him from time to time, they got him accommodation via government housing a few years ago but I believe he's out on the streets again for whatever reason

    Do I feel bad for him? Yes because I know his story and he's my blood. But he has his own negative behaviour, I keep him at a distance but it's not like I have negative wishes for him.

    Homeless niggas will beg for money indignantly like I'm their father and I ain't got nothing for them

    I once gave a homeless nigga my chicken cause he was begging me for it for his "HIV medication" and I gave it to him, I turn my back and I look at him in the reflection...

    Homie took a bite, didn't like the flavor, made a stank face and threw it on the ground then walked away talking s***.

    Never have I ever again parted ways with anything of mine for a homeless nigga.

    I do and I had a similar experience with a homeless person once. There was a homeless dude holding the door for people at a McDonald's, basically tryna get some money. When I walked in I gave him two bucks. But as I ordered my food I also got an order for him. Something simple like medium fries and a 10pc nuggets. When I offered him the food bruh said "Man I don't eat this bullshit thanks for nothing!" and I looked at that nigga like

    I still give Black homeless people money but I'm always gonna have that memory in my mind. Like damn...you can be down terribly and still be picky about food

    That's the issue

    Like these niggas obviously don't work. So they don't have the concept in their head that anything you part ways that you bought is literally bought with your labor. Hours of your time.

    And they getting that s*** for free. I bought piping hot chicken and waffles to enjoy for myself with my hard earned money. And gave it away to man that asked for it thinking I was being courteous and his ass threw it away.

    So anything I give you, you don't have to thank me for. But don't turn your nose up on it after YOU BEGGED ME FOR IT.

    It's like when I was kid I didn't understand that s*** cause I never worked, I didn't know what my mom dealt with for food and shelter. So I'd b**** about shoes and games and food, and not really know but when I was older I was embarrassed.

    The race thing tho is kinda but I get it cause non-blacks, on average, have more opportunities.

    I mean it's ight if you don't think that hard but I do. Like other dude earlier it's just unnecessarily racial.

    I'm black too it's just a little tribalistic is all, can't fully support that ideology cause that's what white people used for so long to justify the oppression of my people for centuries

    Being half Nigerian too, I know what tribalism in the community does, and it doesn't support unity just fosters division
