or am I just naive/uninformed
like hearing about shanty towns in other countries just makes me think of cops throwing homeless people's tents and wheelchairs into trash compactors from the sidewalk around here

What's worse is that we actually treat the homeless as criminals and give the cops carte blanche to deal with them as such. Instead of homelessness as being seen as a societal failure to protect the poor, the homeless are just criminals that the cops have to deal with.
Americans don’t see anything as a societal failure that’s the point of all that individualist propaganda it trains people to just see it as a moral failing on the homeless persons part and they can just move on and give it no further thought
Yup. Society's fine, it's just your fault for not bootstrapping. Oh and btw you're a criminal now too so best of luck trying to get back on your feet!
LGBTQ+ folks

Sorry... snark-castic joke.
I've heard lots of "its society's fault" for letting the Gays be gay and the Trans be trans, etc. The "make America great again" crowd, you know?
Ah yeah that’s fair guess it depends on what they’re trying to demonize.
