Whole lotta wrong assumptions about what I think here, don't appreciate that and won't spend my time correcting them.

I'm largely in agreement with plenty of this, but regardless, NYC poor ain't delivering revolution. More generally, poor in the US aren't either, while so much of the country just keeps it moving like nothing is all that wrong.

The middle class has to suffer, for change. The poor have done their bit. I'm not asking you to be excited, I'm asking you to stop talking about living human beings - the ones already suffering the worst - as pawns to use. It's wrong, and gross, no matter the goals.
