    Yes I did. And it makes me see how the system is broken.

    What I “fucking didn’t” was report it.

    Imagine being concerned about such things.

    I used to live in a tent and people were lovely. When I could afford permits for NPs, I’d have other camping friends. I’d also shoplift and felt bad for it, only making sure I took the cheapest food and supplies and only what I need. I wasn’t a threat to anything, no one in that situation could even afford to be one.

      You shouldn’t have felt the slightest bit bad my friend. Your government consigned to be marginalized and not help you? Take what you need.

    I’m not gonna snitch on someone stealing bread or nappies but in my experience they’re usually stealing alcohol.

      Sometimes an immediate relief from psychological suffering through the escapism of alcohol is no different than the immediate need for food. Sometimes the alternative is death

      Luxury items that have no cheaper, reasonable alternative are where I draw the line. Alcohol to cope with the chronic pain and psychological suffering that homelessness brings is not really a luxury in my book

      Well alcoholism and addiction are diseases that capitalism engineer to addict people to alcohol, so I don’t care at all.

        Not to mention that alcohol withdrawal can literally kill you. It is obviously better to get sober, but a heavy drinker going cold turkey without medical supervision can end up in the morgue.
