Seeing a lot of people (rightfully) pissed so I guess I figured I'd add some resources to be able to help with stuff (I'll add more if other people drop more):
People's budget is trying to get money away from pigs and into the community.

It's amazing how all the city subreddits have a shared interest in their seething hate of homeless people
At least for my old hometown's subreddit, the users skew heavily towards either white folks or suburbanites, two demographics that absolutely hate homeless people.
Literally subs full of white collar office workers who embody the PMC I keep hearing doesn't actually exist
City subs are almost always reactionary cesspools because their mod teams and most "famous" posters are almost always undercover marketers trying to run good press for their respective city governments.
When I used to post on the country club known as /r/Detroit, the mod team literally had the admins ban me for suggesting that the mods only allows certain posts or certain viewpoints to bubble to the top of the sub since I was "doxxing" them despite the fact that the information I posted literally came from the mods themselves and one of them is literally employed by the local chamber of commerce lmao (that specific mod also made a youtube video giving marketers tips on how to advertise on reddit since, according to him, "they're all sheep", and bro even used anti-capitalist subs to detect other marketing firm's techniques to capitalize on)
Absolute blood suckers. They still won't let me back on after getting me banned at least 7 more times despite the fact that I actually fucking live here.
Every local government is run by the chamber of commerce and real estate developers, so this doesn't surprise me.
Capital City by Samuel Stein intensifies
Worth reading? Been on my list for a minute.
Nothing is shocking, but it details how exactly what you describe occurs, based on Sam’s analysis and personal experience.
The prescription is overall the same though, IMO — abolish capitalism
My city subreddit is shockingly not that bad. It has it's moments, but they don't seem to aggressively hate homeless as other subreddits do.

My cities reddit has like 1 post every 10 days, thankfully not active enough to shit on the homeless.
DSA folks kinda took over ours. Mod team is pissed, couple wheraboors and some sleazy marketing guys trying to make the $20 million in taxes given back to the hotel lobby every year look like a good thing.
The rest is just "whos dog is this"
