    What’s the point of that rethoric?

    It’s black humor.

    He’s pointing out that lots of people don’t seem to have a problem with homeless people dying. They just have a problem with homeless people dying visibly in the streets instead of invisibly somewhere else. Or, even worse, actually addressing the causes of homelessness like building enough housing so the rent isn’t too damn high.

      It looks like you think they’re disagreeing with your point, but they are jokingly disagreeing with your scope.

      You were like “i think it’s bad and bad and people in charge don’t care that it’s bad”. They were like “i think it’s horrible because the people in charge just want to make it worse.”
