The people who don’t view housing as a human right are those who believe they will always have housing.
They can’t fathom becoming disabled, losing their savings or their support network.
They can’t comprehend having everything ripped away from them.
They think they’re the exception.
They’re not.
People don’t plan for homelessness or disability.
It just takes one accident, illness or stroke of bad luck.
We all need and deserve a safety net.
@broadwaybabyto This gets pretty dark when you go into reasons why they believe they will always have housing.
I think you’re not taking into account several key pieces of brain research from the 2010’s.
Many of them actually believe some people shouldn’t have housing, and they deserve that.
People with brains that see the world through dominance/oppression group relationships, do not feel out-groups as fully human. Their empathy is selective.
This argument doesn’t work on them.
@gimulnautti @broadwaybabyto exactly that is the problem!
They are sociopathic af.
