She actually lived in Cabri Green not a simulation in a country club banquet room

So she took an actual home away from somebody who could have used it?

Not very woke.

I like how the tweet criticizing Highland Park mistakes or conflates race for class and then complains how they are homogenizing the poor. Quality thought!

That highland park mayor is highly desirous of getting a bigger office.

I like how they define their ethnic groups in HP. It seems focused on whether you are hispanic or not. Also, they are avoiding (((their most clear demographic)))

You’ll never fail like common people. You’ll never watch your life slide out of view. And dance and drink and screw. Cuz there’s nothing else to do.

As a concept a poverty simulation could be a useful tool in demonstrating how much it sucks to be poor. The execution of the simulation always ends up being stupid as fuck. Unless you actually have these people waiting to catch a bus in the middle of January so they can wait in line to apply for benefits, the reality of the situation is never going to register.

I’d suggest it’s actually an incredibly dumb idea.

There’s no replicating the mental component of not having money.

They say money can't buy happiness. Poor people have it just as good as rich people.

Hearing your mom talk ( when you were supposed to be asleep) about not having money for groceries or having no way to pay next months rent when youre 8 years old is pretty much the same as people in Highland Park having an 8 hour simulation of that .

Whoever said money can’t solve your problems must not have had enough money to solve ‘em.

What's a simulation? Is it woke?

Maybe they can also do a “rich” simulation too and recreate Trading Places.

You can't simulate the mental aspect and desperation that poverty brings.

Creating ways to take money from the wealthy is a growing industry.

Apparently not.

I assume the desperation you’re talking about is the desperation to pull oneself up by one’s bootstraps

Yes, even when they don't have boots. We celebrate the rags to riches stories because it's so rare. If you are born poor, you will very likely die poor. If you are born wealthy, you usually die wealthy.
