    And yet things are totally worse. But in other ways they couldn’t have imagined. Even for the homeless. Sanctuary Districts? They won’t even allow them to voluntarily do that with tent cities at this point.

    Who would have thought Sanctuary Districts would have been a better alternative?

    When I watched those episodes for the first time, my reaction was: “So the Silicon Valley billionaire would just let the poor people use his network to get their messages out?”

    The rich were portrayed as apathetic, instead of active participants.

    I really think Star Trek fans should just get organized and do our own protests. The unhoused problem is only getting worse everywhere and nobody in power is doing a damn thing to actually help any of those poor people.
