Understandable. Staff is overworked and not supported, and the "clients" aren't exactly receptive to help.

Police won't solve the problem because a few years ago, they chose a stance of abandoning downtown. Then again, all they did was arrest the addict and let them go later, sometimes even roughing them up.

In the past month, I've seen a significant uptick on plainclothes workers helping addicts clean up.

You lumped a huge percentage of people as putting their fingers in their ears.

Maga is going to vote maga. And there's a huge chunk that didn't vote or were surprised Biden dropped out. Those folks didn't put their fingers in their ears. Like Bernie said, they were ignored.

That's my take.

Bro I was alive during Rodney King riots.

Doesn't mean my opinion is more valid than someone actually there.

Jesus vs Gandalf power scalers go!!!

Ah yes, now that you made fun of the prior commenter, we have convinced the world and now Kamala is president?

Bernie is fucking right.

Probably because he's offering them a solution to there problems, deport the immigrants and bring manufacturing back. His plan is dumb and won't work but at least he's putting something forward unlike Harris who says everything will stay the same.

This is exactly what I was pointing out to my friends. Every one of us are making six figures, and could not understand why anybody would vote Trump.

And I asked them how many people in their lives are poor, living paycheck to paycheck. I have family members who are working two or three jobs to get by. All the work Biden did is not being seen or recognized by them.

Are they are under-educated yokels? Are they morons for not keeping up with politics? You can call them what ever you want. Theyre still a voter.

Face it: what they're hearing from Democrats vs what they're hearing from Trump are pretty clear cut and we can stay in this echo chamber all we want on Lemmy. Those folks aren't listening to us. They're just trying to survive and will vote accordingly.

If you're where I'm at, the homeless are actively vandalizing apartment complexes owned by real estate giants.

This was actually my life a few years ago.

I was hardening our applications to stop scraping and automation bots.

Then contributing to open-source to have better scraping and automation.

I wasn't purposely creating loop holes or anything because that's highly illegal. It's about making sure both sides "play nice", because the automation bots are frequently used by spammers/evildoers.

It's wild that there's so many stupid people who seem to have forgot what kind of shit Trump pulled during his administration.

I was laugh-crying when the EU made that comment about the fate of the world being on some rando US state.

America needs to be downgraded in terms of reputation. We aren't protectors of the world, we can barely help ourselves.

Then don't vote for me?

I'm not a public figure. But I absolutely hold them to a higher standard.
