This is not communist solution, this is half-socialism humant colony solution.

Real communist solutions look like this:

Shit still looks better than a tent under a bridge you know.

[–] Flumsy@feddit.de -5 points 10 months ago (2 children)

There is a thing called "homeless shelter" and Im pretty sure its more than just a tent

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Do you think they let you live there permanently?

[–] kattenluik@feddit.nl 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

In pretty much every country other than the US they do, these images are always very strange because they're so focused on the US.

If they can live there permanently, they're not homeless, are they? And that sounds surprisingly anti-capitalistic, almost like what this meme is talking about.

[–] kattenluik@feddit.nl 2 points 10 months ago

Getting these people help makes sense from a capitalist perspective too, help them and they can work again and probably do a full life of that. It really isn't anti-capitalist.

[–] Flumsy@feddit.de 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah they do, actually. At least in most countries...

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world -1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Then they're not homeless. If you have a place where you can live as long as you like, you have a home.

Why is it not a residence if you can stay there indefinitely? That sounds like a residence to me. The Internet tells me that 'residence' means 'the place in which one lives; a dwelling.' If they don't ever have to leave, they live there.

You have to be fucking dumb. Get the fuck out. AcTuAlLy LoL ThE iNtErNeT blablabla. Do you really think a fucking chamber that you can only go to sleep is a fucking residence ? Are you a moron ?? Get an education dumb fuck.

So homeless people dont exist then? Because where I live, everybody could go to a shelter for as long as they like.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

If they don't live in a shelter indefinitely, yes. They are homeless.

[–] Flumsy@feddit.de 1 points 10 months ago

They could live in a shelter indefinitely...

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

More and worse. Been there. Done that. Got stalked in the shower by a mentally ill guy and they did fuck all about it.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 16 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Not sure what the difference is. They are both pictures of high density buildings.

[–] uis@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Height and what surrounds them.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That's a framing difference for the photo.

[–] finnie@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago

Ugh, living in a forest like that sounds idyllic

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 9 points 10 months ago

There is no such thing as half socialism. There is only the oligarchy deigning to not be complete assholes, as long as you agree to beg.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

I'm pretty sure that's an issue with maintenance, not communism. And I'd still rather live there than in a tent.

[–] min_fapper@iusearchlinux.fyi 2 points 10 months ago

Is the point supposed to be that they haven't been cleaned in a while?

Otherwise they don't look that bad. 🤷

[–] spark947@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

No one realizes what this is a picture of huh?

[–] RIP_Cheems@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago

And it failed miserable, at that.
