On February 25 2024, Aaron Bushnell set himself on fire at the gate of the
Israeli embassy in Washington, DC “as an act of protest against the ongoing
genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.”


Aaron wrote “I view enforced homelessness as a societal failing and a crime against humanity.”


Chris asked “we enforce homelessness?” Jay tries to convince Chris that we do.

Excerpt from that article: “I’ve always been bothered by the reality of
homelessness, even back when I was growing up in a conservative community. I
have come to believe in the importance of solidarity politics and I view the
enforcement of homelessness as a major front in the class war which must be
challenged for all our sakes. I view helping my houseless neighbors as a moral
obligation, a matter of social justice, and a matter of good politics. If I
don’t stand with those more marginalized than me today then who will be left to
stand with me tomorrow.


I view enforced homelessness as a societal failing and a crime against
humanity. I believe that no one deserves to be deprived of basic human
necessities. I believe that homelessness as an involuntary condition must be
abolished.”
