HOMELESS, lets not save others feelings on the back of those that are ‘unhoused’, it seems like those people already have enough going on. Also fuck this guy.
I totally agree, making sure they’re seen as people is great, and changing the wording to reflect that is a positive change.
I just don’t think “unhoused people” is the right one. To me it implies that it’s temporary and there’s some sort of action being done to rectify it. I have no idea why I have that preconception though. Maybe it’s just me?
I guess something like “homeless people” is a middle ground, but it still has the stigma
Jesus. This is just too much. Words have meaning you know. I live in an apartment so I guess I’m unhoused. Homeless though does imply that I have none of these things since i have no home.
neither is helping the issue, I think homeless means we need to get them a home. unhoused sounds like they have a home they are just sleeping in the ally for fun.

Referring to people as unhoused is actually a way to help people see them as people and not an “other”. Some see “homeless” as a bit dehumanizing.
