Right off the bat, this statement alludes to "poor == unhoused and unfed", which is propaganda at best. Feeding the hungry and sheltering the houseless is a civic duty. Full stop. Greatly decreasing crime rates is a symptom of neither, however, and to imply otherwise is shamefully misinformed.

The parasitic bourgeoisie steal more from us all in a single day than we do from them, by more than an order of magnitude. Oh, and unless you're pulling down /upper/ six or seven figures? You're "poor" too, so drop the manufactured perspective; none of us are "momentarily embarrassed millionaires".

Join us. To them, you're livestock.

weird comment cuz you obviously agree with the rhetorical goals of the post but forcibly frame yourself as attacking it, and do so with incredible agression?
