A story on a local organization reaching out to help the unhoused in my current area. The director of the organization is quoted using the term “unhoused”, but the reporter (or their editor) decided to use the more charged term “homeless” in the by-line and the article.

    particularly with the right, as they try to pin the blame for it on their opposition.

    How the hell do they do that? What policies are they pushing that would help the homeless?

    Here, they try not to mention it as a societal problem at all, and if they do they paint it as inevitable and/or deserved.

      Average joe kinda implies middle American, so no, probably not.

      Are you saying you don’t think republicans try to blame the homeless problem on democrats?
