people love to leave out that you can’t really do serious harm reduction without also housing people wild, that people ALSO need a safe place to sleep, to eat, to have stability, in addition to needing safe injection sites and clean needles almost like we should call things…basic..needs…

It was inevitable that reactionary centrists would turn against harm reduction and call for a return to mass incarceration

theatlantic.comThe Cities That Said Yes to DrugsPolicies that gave addicts clean needles and places to use drugs were intended to reduce harm. They created a “zombie apocalypse.”

it is absurd how delusional you have to be to think that harm reduction is the problem and not the fact that you’re abandoning people as they live in squalor on the sidewalk or in tents or even bouncing between shelters people can’t imagine if they didn’t have a home, what it would do to them
