LOS ANGELES—In an effort to reframe the conversation by ending the discussion altogether, advocates across the country encouraged the public on Monday to stop using any term at all to refer to homeless people. “Given the widespread chronic issue of unhoused individuals, we recommend that people who want to discuss the homelessness problem in the United States refrain from making any reference to them whatsoever,” said activist Daniel Morganson, who added that instead of saying “homeless,” it would be far more acceptable to silently stare off into the distance. “Any mention of the homeless could be considered offensive, which is why it’s important for everyone to act like they don’t exist. We don’t want to risk humanizing them.” At press time, the advocates clarified that it was still okay to call the homeless “subhuman leeches on society.”

If I ever find myself having anything less than disgust for my country, I need only look at the nearest tent city to remember who we are, when we’re not shooting each other, at least.
A few sociopathic greed monster families, a whole lot of greed monster worshipping wannabe sycophants, and the greatest victims who didn’t play capitalist wage slave ball well enough for diverse reasons, cast out to die of police harassment and exposure to the elements, while most peasants openly despise them for lowering their property values by selfishly continuing to draw breath while destitute. 🎶🇺🇸Oh say can you seeeeeeee? 🇺🇸🎶
