    You probably do more good giving money to a org that helps the unhoused than personally letting an unhoused person crash in your basement. By all means do both if you can, but actual organized groups can use resources more effectively than a lone good Samaritan can, they probably get twice the good out of every dollar you give them than you'd get spending it yourself. But be sure to research any orgs before you give to make sure they're not a grift.

      Are you telling me that it's better to give up my own agency in leading my life in a revolutionary direction, which I'm in grasping distance of, and instead I should pin both all of my hopes and all of my resources to be pooled in separate larger organizations, which only promise a resolution that's beyond the horizon?

      I'm not talking about hypotheticals, I'm talking about the actual trajectory of my life that has been getting clearer and clearer for years.
