The reasons for homelessness are probably uncountable and I guess that those people exist in every country.
But #criminalizing homelessness by itself and making life for those people intentionally hard and uncomfortable is something where the USA gathered "reputation" and could do much better. Some countries support #homeless people with shelters when it's too cold to sleep outside or with many other things. With #humanity in mind people can be treated much different than in the USA.

It is too early to know what #abortion #opponents will prioritize in 2025, but one goal is coming into view: #Criminalizing #speech and #information about #abortion.

@Toastie WTF is with the Christofacist obsession with #criminalizing #Homelessness?
Even if we don't believe that #Housing & #Shelter is a #HumanRight we can agree that penalizing someone for being #Homeless isn't going to make that person not homeless...

Yes, New #House #Speaker #MikeJohnson Once Wrote in #Support of #Criminalizing #Gay #Sex.
He called #homosexuality a "#inherently #unnatural" and "#dangerous #lifestyle
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson has a history of harsh anti-gay language from his time as an attorney for a #antiLGBTQ #Hategroup in the mid-2000s.

#Mexico's #SupremeCourt upholds #AbortionRights #nationwide, paving way for #federal #access
#MexicoSupremeCourt on Wednesday struck down a federal #law #criminalizing #abortion, reaffirming an earlier ruling that #criminal penalties for abortion were #unconstitutional & allowing the federal #healthcare system to provide services.
(#SCOTUS has some explaining to do)

#ADF is a full-throated, highly effective combatant in the #CultureWars, w/particular — & to many people, particularly offensive — views about #abortion & #LGBTQ+ #rights. It argued in favor of #criminalizing homosexual conduct & against #gays in the #military. It #litigated cases defending the rights of #Christian bakers & website designers to refuse to provide services for #SameSex weddings; it’s in #court right now arguing that the abortion drug #Mifepristone should be taken off the market.
#silencingdissent: Why are there more and more efforts to block #protests by #criminalizing, #terrorizing and #surveilling #demonstrators? Why are #policymakers attempting to label those who seek #rights afforded by the U.S. Constitution as #domesticterrorists?
I think that we should stop #criminalizing #pirating and I wish the #government would give #everyone $50,000 every month no matter what and I think that #people should stop treating sex #workers like they're scum of the #earth and I wish that we all cared a little more about #artists and #musicians and #dancers and #writers and I think we should stop acting like #gender and #sexuality is the same for #everybody and I think we should all #steal a little more
Is it surprising that #FossilFuel interests have had a hand in drafting legislation that benefits them?
(Is the sky blue?)
"The American Legislative Exchange Council (Alec) helped draft legislation #criminalizing grassroots protests against pipelines, gas terminals and other oil and gas expansion projects in 24 states, under the guise of protecting critical infrastructure."
