Meh, I’ve lived similarly (trailer parks, a garage, slum apartments, etc) and know people that still do live similarly. It can be quite stressful and demoralizing struggling to just try to meet your basic needs. I’m not really trying to pass judgement, I just found it strange the artist included things that could be seen as contradicting the narrative. I haven’t met anyone that was happy living like this, and it really takes a toll on people.
Well, I guess I have met some people in a small commune-like thing living in sheds, an old broken down school-bus, etc. They seemed “ok” with stuff like dumpster-diving for most of their food. They were definitely not the norm though, and were fortunate to have free housing/land that couldn’t really be taken away.
