Honestly I'm not sure. I don't know that part of history very well at all, and wouldn't want to venture a guess.

ahhh fair!

Yes. And who is on the left saying 'hey you should act this fucking way instead of these douche canoes?'

That's my point.

How many billions of dollars in student loan debt did Biden cancel? How much more would have been cancelled if the supreme court didn't act in a blatantly partisan manner?

Yeah, I do hold them responsible. Shumer shouldn't be in leadership and AOC should be on every high profile committee there is.

Not voting solves nothing. You know how you get more progressive legislation passed? By voting for the party that has progressives in it. That's how. More democrats means more people like AOC. It doesn't fucking matter if your personal rep is a god damned blue dog if it means there's one less republican in congress.

This shit is so fucking lazy.

Biden enacted plenty of progressive asks during his term. Harris outlined plenty of progressive asks in her campaign as well.

Just because it wasn't 100% of what YOU personally wanted doesn't mean it wasn't good legislation.

Hope none of your family dies because of this, because if they do it's on you, mr protest voter.

Oh cool.

TIL wanting people to not live in homeless encampments that are dangerous is fascist. Thanks for that. Lets see you take in the guy who mumbles to himself and is addicted to heroin into your home and treat him how about that?

Where you going to build affordable housing in west LA?

There's literally no place for it. Should people living in Venice just be given beachfront housing for free to live in?

Whats your SOLUTION to the problem? Because like I said. There are multiple reasons there's a homeless epidemic across the entire country.

The other issue that you forgot to mention is a lot of red states take their homeless people and send them to California.

I live in LA. I've been threatened by people who are homeless. Multiple times. Yes, these people deserve help. But there's a billion reasons why our current system isn't working and part of that is the state can't institutionalize these people to get them clean from drugs and to help start them on the pathway to being a productive citizen again.

I live in the Miracle Mile area, and I do not give a shit about someones 'right' to camp on the sidewalk with a huge ass tent that smells of shit. Sorry, but that's a public health hazard.

Do I want people to get help? Absolutely. Do I think that people who live in these areas also deserve to live in a safe and clean environment? Absolutely.

Something has to be done, at least Gavin is trying things.

It seems like the tabletop wargaming groups are really dead, so I feel you on this, haha.

Way too many of you think you're the 'average person' in this world.
