You're spending an awful lot of time coming up with as many excuses as possible for why someone's direct experience must be wrong and therefore ignored. This is incredibly selfish. All in defense of being an antagonistic asshole to people based wholly on their geographic location, at that.

Maybe you ought to spend some time looking at yourself instead. Would do the world a lot more good than your current strategy of being condescending to homeless people.

I’m condescending to everyone, don’t get excited.
