Reminder that you cannot name yourself an ally, that must be earned via doing the work. Having members of that group call you that after walking the walk & talking the talk.
I heavily side eye anyone naming themselves an ally to another group of people. Also accomplice is a better descriptor, IMHO.

The infuriating thing about politics these days is:
The progressive approach isn’t JUST humane, though that should be enough;
It’s often also ridiculously effective for lower cost!!

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.
They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.
The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants said they had housing.
Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.
