Aren’t these basically the same picture? Like the second photo has a literal apartment building on the right of the background

Imagine thinking living in an apartment with heat, water, furniture, dishwasher, clothes washer, electricity, all the amenities, is the same as living in a tent. Exactly what the meme says: brainwashed society.

I’m just saying the two are part of the same picture, both literally and metaphorically. Often when people go against these they point to the homeless in cities. I get and agree with the point, I just don’t agree with the presentation; maybe some similar picture for the bottom in a suburb would do

both literally and metaphorically.

Imagine thinking that tents must be associated with apartments. And that apartments must be associated with tents.

See meme again: brainwashed society.

Again, I'm not saying that tents must be associated with apartments. I'm saying that people who oppose things like apartments often associate homelessness with density in their arguments.
