tbh the same would be happening if they stopped funding ukraines defence and israels genocide. After all, helping poor people is communism!

If it was accurate the suited hand would be taking money out of the cup and sending a cop to arrest the homeless person. Then in the next panel the homeless person is convicted of some contrived bullshit and forced into a slave labor camp ran by the suited man who stole his money and locked him up.
