If I tried to explain this take to homeless congress I've been working with, they'd laugh me out of the room.
"Yeah, I know we have powerful political allies working on our terms to get people housing and public utilities. But they hire workers, so good luck finding a tent and a place cops won't harass you."
The largest ally is a coalition of music shops and concert halls. Given the current situation, the only music venue which will be able to reopen post-pandemic is the major stadium, which only hosts big ticket events.
Indie musicians organized on their own to do benefit concerts to keep the music venues open. Through them and radicals in the music scene, we've been able to get their support in advocating for rent and utility deferments to continue.
God damn lol
