The last panel could said "I guess I'm living in the streets" and the pig calling the police because there's a homeless close their property.

Another one might be: living in their car and getting a cop called on them because a lot of places (US states mainly) have laws against sleeping in a car.

Those tall lamps that most corporate chain stores install in their giant parking lots are also specifically angled to make laying down in your car difficult. It shines right in your eyes. I see a lot of people talk about hostile architecture in terms of physically stopping unhoused people from sleeping in the streets. But car sleeping has a lot of similar barriers that are otherwise invisible.

Off topic: I see your name in orange in the Voyager app. Is this a per-comment flag on Lemmy (that you have the option to set when posting), or just something apps might do based on the value of an account-level flag?

Edit: disregard, see below.

Also Voyager, name isn't orange. I haven't seen an orange name; what version do you use?

Oh! Thank you! I assumed these were admins or something, but it seems it highlights users on my own instance. Stupid feature.

While we're here, how many of your comments has Voyager eaten?

You even worked in "police exist to protect capital" at the end. Well done!

People not understanding this is so fucking annoying.

"Sure I can't afford housing but not allowing investment bankers to own 75% of the housing stock infringes on my personal freedom!"

Truly one of the systems of all time.
