So it sounds like people are doing nothing about this and content simply complaining about it online.

As long as you keep the neighborhood looking clean and safe for kids, no one truly gives a fuck if you're squatting... Which is what I hope most people think.

A safe place to live comfortably should be a fucking human right. Too bad this idea is seen as extremist socialist by most of the world, not just USA, so don't get this fact twisted saying that it's the only country that has this shit idealogy.
