hello I am an anarchist and I see a lot of hypocrisy here
to spell it out: the combination of laws against public urination / defecation, and the lack of free toilets in public places, criminalises poverty.
if you're desperate to use a bathroom, and you can't afford to be a customer of this business, the person who put up this sign thinks you should risk arrest (and in some places, being added to a sex offenders' register) - or probably, not be in the neighbourhood in the first place.
claiming to respect marginalised people, while discriminating based on wealth / class (and ignoring the correlation between race/gender/immigration status, and money) is a hallmark of liberalism.
