In recent years, homeless encampments have spread into virtually every neighborhood, while the population has climbed to an estimated 41,000 people. Many are drug addicted or mentally ill, and violence is commonplace.

41,000 homeless people is a huge number. Thats more than the number of people that live in my town.

And the Child Stars are helpless targets of the ruling class.

They could solve the problems, cheaply and efficiently, but that's not what the government and ZZZthe ruling classZZZ want.

I wish more people realized this. It's not a few bad apples. It's a systematic fleecing of the people and it's been going on a long time. There's a youtuber named Soft Spoken Shaman you might like. His last stream was about an hour and he talked about how the ruling class doesn't really see us as human. More like cattle to raised exclusively for slaughter. I think that's the biggest mental blockage that keeps liberals on the leftist reservation. They can't fathom that the most trusted institutions are staffed with and managed by people that are pedophiles, psychopaths and satanists. They just think it's a little graft here and there. It's not. It's a major fucking problem. There's this extreme cognitive dissonance in the average person. They've literally programmed us to offer ourselves up for a lifetime of milking. Fuck it. This cow is running away to the wild.

> systematic fleecing of the people

Good title for something. That's all the system does.

Thanks for the rec.

how the ruling class doesn't really see us as human.

Maybe. I think they just don't care.

Even from their side you could argue that the status quo just exemplifies Human Nature. Most folks are good and some aren't, most folks are average and some aren't, most folks have little or no power and some have more and always used it to accumulate even more.

As you said, the system is designed to exploit. Think of the children working in Bangladesh making all our T-shirts. Most will never have any education, wealth, power, nor "amount to anything". You don't need to think of them as less-than-human or animals or anything like that. Regardless of any compassion the ruling class may or may not have, they are still just people, but are stuck in their lives - as socially engineered by the ruling class over decades and centuries. To change their lot in life would require massive drastic reforms, all very expensive, as well as a new paradigm with solutions to produce T-shirts fairly. You can't just do that without overhauling the entire system and applying it to more than just the T-shirt industry. That requires an entirely larger, more extreme overhaul and much more expense.

There really is no solution - other than the gradual awakening resistance with resilient flexible alternatives and solutions.

pedophiles, psychopaths and satanists.

Criminal exploiters gonnna criminally exploit, even if they dress it up in fancy rituals to justify it to themselves.

They've literally programmed us to offer ourselves up for a lifetime of milking.

Not just that. Every generation has these manufactured wars designed to traumatize and cull the herd.

Love the cow story. There are more of us freedom-seekers than just one rare example though.
