If I had the superpower of summoning tungsten blocks, I would use it for this. And bike lane barriers.

This is a classic. One of the biggest burns of all time. ๐
If I were an evil engineer Iโd make retractable benches built into the walls that cost money to pull out. If I were a public official Iโd have a subscription package for $60/yr that lets you use all the benches in the city. Must have a valid drivers license to purchase.
I would let anyone extend the bench but if the systems detects the user doesn't have a valid subscription it folds back into the wall compressing the person into a chunky soup.
I would name these benches after our favorite economic model - the meat grinder.

I hope you're not either of those things...

I gotta say, and maybe it's just me, but the reaction to this stuff is so much better on Lemmy than it was on Reddit. Redditors seem to hate the homeless.

The hell's going on in USA...?
Where I live I'm barely seeing homeless, and when I'm seeing homeless then it's due to their own choice of preffering alcohol over shelter, so I don't care that much (still getting them food if they ask and I have the means).
Does america not have shelters for homeless? Or do more homeless prefer deugs of any kind over shelter?
Homeless folks, in the sense of literally being on the street, often have either addiction or mental health issues here in the states. As our treatment for addiction is 'jail' and for mental health issues is 'deal with it', they are generally not overflowing with options.

Damn, if I were the social media person of what's presumably the responsible subway org, I'd also say it like it is. It's not your decision anyways. But actually reading it put so bluntly, is still wild to me.
