Over 40 Victim of Fate
Could someone please explain to me...
So I've noticed on the news the last couple of days that local authorities and churches are opening warming facilities ahead of the cold snap.
Warming facilities for the unhoused.
So, could someone please explain to me how the term "unhoused" is any better, any more sympathetic, any less stigmatizing than "homeless?"

I personally don't have that problem

That make two of us.
My wife tells me I'm an asshole. I tell her that I'm okay with that...

Ignored by the alt-right
For future reference just as the formerly homeless are now unhoused you will now be known as sympathy challenged rather than A*hole.
You're welcome.
