Giving to the Homeless

[brimstoneSalad]

Intersectional theory is starting to sound like a conspiracy theory now that I think about it.

It is. If you disagree with anything in it, you're silenced as part of the patriarchy. It's unfortunate, because it's killing the left/progressivism. The same way the irrational dogma of fundamentalism took over the right (if you disagree with them, then you're in league with the devil; same thing. Unfalsifiable hypothesis taken as fact and meant to maintain an echo chamber).

If you live in a city, they likely have several homeless shelters that feed and house those who are willing to abide by the rules of the house. (Generally no drinking or drugs.)

I volunteer a couple of hours a week in just such an establishment, where I meet some amazing people. Anyone can become homeless through no fault of their own, it doesn't take much!

I fundraise for the homeless, I give food to a couple of Big Issue sellers, and I can't pass a beggar on the streets without giving them something. If I've been conned, which I doubt very much is the case, so what, at least my conscience is clear. Where I live there is a team whose job it is to locate these homeless people and offer them some help.

"There, but for happenstance, go I", I reckon.
