    Bro wtf are you on about? There’s tons of public spaces in the UK, cities included.

      At least where I live, you’ll be hard pressed to find a spot in the city where a homeless person can sleep unnacosted, either by spikes being put down on flat surfaces, parks being closed at night, and benches that aren’t on a main road.

      I don’t think you’ve ever been to the UK. Most of those “public” spaces are corporate property and if you and your homelessness damage their brand they’ll escort you off.

      The homeless camps on high street ken during the pandemic had this happen to them all the time, as if the cruel irony of rough sleepers next to wholefoods and dyson shit blower 3k ads wasn’t enough to make humanity unevolve powered solely by cringe alone and let trilobites, or some particularly feisty proto-moss take the top spot instead.

        I’ve lived up and down the UK for nearly 30 years. In both the north and the south you can basically bump into public spaces that can be used by the homeless. Just because your city ain’t got them doesn’t mean it’s the same for the rest of the UK.

            My “can” includes infrastructure that I’ve actually seen being used by the homeless and setups that can feasibly be used by the homeless.

            Stop pulling things out of your ass. It doesn’t make your argument stronger.

              Ah yes the classic strategy for when you get caught pulling stuff out of your ass: accuse the other person of doing the same, the wordier equivalent of simply going “no u”.

              You can stop now, it’s just embarrassing

                Well, you pulled out of your ass that I’ve never been to the UK when I lived there for nearly 30 years, you pulled out of your ass that I’ve never actually seen public infrastructure being used by the homeless, which I obviously have given how long I’ve lived there.

                So now that we’ve established that my accusations of you pulling stuff out of your ass is well founded, do you have anything to say that isn’t an attempt at setting up a straw man or ‘no u’?
