What is there to possibly be gained by bringing the same kind of hounding unhoused people receive about how they spend their money found throughout capitalist society into our space? You think they don't hear that enough already?
The whole point of our mutual aid community is that you can ask for money without means testing or people bothering you about how exactly you spent it. Also, idk if you actually read their post, but the headphones money didn't even come from here.
It's not a strawman, you literally sound like one of those people when you're talking about people spending the tiny amount of money (a drop in a bucket compared to what people actually need, continuously, to survive) they get from "handouts" on "frivolous non-essential purchases" (wildly loaded words) and calling them "fucking stupid"
It's one thing to be giving advice (although unsolicited advice is often annoying) but what is it about what you're saying that is different from the average liberal just talking down to unhoused people about how they think they're spending money wrong?
You came into this calling them "fucking idiotic" so fuck you
Also you can't be racist to white people
Damn they're white too???
