I love how like 85% of homeless people have chronic illnesses but yet they made this whole thing about the like 35% of homeless people that use drugs to some extent. WHILE ACTIVELY TRYING TO REDUSE AID TO THOSE PEOPLE

Unfortunately the Republicans got the precedent for this handed to them on a silver platter thanks to the recent Supreme Court case that allowed states to criminalize homelessness (which Gavin Newsom was one of the biggest campaigners for, thanks establishment dems).

Update: they only specify “serious mental illness” (which usually means schizophrenia, severe bipolar disorder, and personality disorders) and substance use disorders, but it seems like it could apply to any recognized condition a homeless person has as long as someone can argue that said condition prevents them from living independently. Technically “neurodivergence” includes all of the above but if you’re specifically asking about what the DSM-5 calls “neurodevelopmental disorders” then (1/2)

homeless people with those diagnoses could still be institutionalized more easily under this order (2/2)

Oh my gosh how how could they do such a thing. They’re not succeeding in a system that actively exploits marginalized people and works to keep the rich rich and the poor poor. They’re just need to work harder!!! They said sarcastically

Only if you're homeless at the same time. Highly recommend reading the source itself to avoid misinformation. It's not about criminalizing disability, but making it easier to lock homeless people up ("you're on the streets and you have a mental disability? Well clearly you're dangerous, you need to be institutionalized")

Let’s see how long it takes for that specification to include all mental illness and forms of neurodivergence. I hate it here istg
