      Good to know you’re satisfied with the homeless living in cars. I find that this argument generally correlates with people who think cops should sweep homeless encampments when they’re in tents and not cars (at least in their neighborhood).

        I’m not fine with it, I’ve even been homeless before.

        With the way things are now, with the system as it is, people need cars to survive. Sometimes for shelter, sometimes for food, and someone’s for their job.

        You, being a rabid asshole, are mad about this, and think they should be institutionalized, just because they own a car.

        The people living in their cars have enough problems without the short-sighted, privileged, judgemental opinions of people like you to tell them they are monsters for trying to stay alive.

        You wanna get mad at something? Get mad at the oil industry. Get mad at the auto industry. Get mad at rich assholes or judges who let people get a slap on the wrist for running people over.

        But being acting high and mighty over people trying to survive when you don’t have to do the same thing makes you a huge prick, and that’s something that hurts any good cause you attach yourself to.

        So for the sake of the encouragement and people trying to fix the car situation, shut the fuck up, at least till you get therapy.

          Whatever you have to tell yourself.

          You wanna get mad at something? Get mad at the oil industry. Get mad at the auto industry. Get mad at rich assholes or judges who let people get a slap on the wrist for running people over.

          I am. But I’m also mad at carbrained shitheads like you who refuse to even consider how to get to a world without them in it. You just throw your hands up because PeOpLe NEED tHeIr CaRs!!!11!!!uno!!!1!

          If you genuinely have nothing to say about it other than “shut up and accept the status quo” then the ultimate result of you existing is exactly the same as the oil executives, auto sales scum, and permissive, carbrained judges.

          Fuck cars, and fuck you for driving one. And fuck anybody who thinks that’s too extreme. Continuing to allow the planet to be destroyed for the convenience of lazy fat asses is too fucking extreme.
