    Finland had in 2023 a total of 3429 homeless people. 2/3rds of those are temporary without home for a wide variety of reasons, including mental health or substance abuse issues, and that category is the main cause when talking about long term homeless that make up the remaining 1/3rd. I think based on that, saying “often behind the homelessness there’s substance abuse, addiction or mental health issues” makes perfect sense.

              oh shit my bad how could i forget, every time u want to refer to something u MUST do so explicitly by name, sorry stupid mistake, how could i forget the most important rule of communication that literally everyone always follows because thats how things work.

                If you want to make a specific point it pays to be specific. The US isn’t the only country on the planet, shouldn’t assume every discussion is about the US by default.

                  do u not know about the concept of context? also u are in the english speaking part of the internet 99.99% of the time it is about america, its a pretty safe assumption, and it is infact what this is about, so how about u stop spewing vile right wing bullshit and u learn how to read the room. either way we are done.

                    It’s interesting, I didn’t specify what country I was talking about and you are upset about that, even though you also think that’s just fine as long as the country is the US. Very America-centric mindset.

                    so how about u stop spewing vile right wing bullshit

                    Nothing more right wing than not thinking USA is the only country on earth lmao.

                    either way we are done.

                    At no point did you bring anything to this conversation. First you failed to understand that other countries exist, then after that you’ve been (ironically) upset about I should’ve specified I dared to talk about an another country because USA is to you the default.

                    We were done before you even started, friend.
