homeless people deserve nice things. addicts deserve nice things. if getting drunk or high is the nicest thing available to someone, then they have a right want it and they have a right to do it. people have the right to self-determination. people have the right to do things you may deem unhealthy. people have the right to want to enter recovery, and people deserve adequate care when they do make that decision, but it’s not immoral per se to not want to seek treatment for an addiction. nobody can make that decision for someone else. you don’t get to choose how other people live their lives. if you don’t want to give homeless people money then don’t fucking do it, but don’t be sanctimonious about it. like get off your high fucking horse and admit you think death is a better, more moral fate than living with an addiction.
