The majority of the deaths by drugs in America are the result of meth and fentanyl. Almost none of that comes from Venezuela

Changer le langage permet d’agir politiquement : Dire « *Nom de la personne* est morte faute de logement » rend visible la cause réelle et critique l’ordre social.
- Reposted by Cecile Alduy2. Déshumanisation : Le terme « SDF » essentialise la personne à une catégorie abstraite, effaçant son humanité et sa singularité. 3. Responsabilité du système : La phrase évite de pointer le rôle de la société, de la propriété privée et de l’État dans cette mort.
- Reposted by Cecile AlduyDire "un SDF est mort de froid" est problématique car cette formulation masque les causes sociales et la responsabilité collective. 1. Langage et naturalisation : « Mort de froid » suggère un phénomène naturel, alors que c’est l’exclusion, le manque de logement et l’organisation sociale qui tuent.
