You’re operating under the assumption that every homeless person is homeless because they are down on their luck and can’t afford housing.
That is not the entire homeless population, and probably not the population that assaults random people on the bus.
Not to say that those people deserve to be homeless, but you can’t make the assumption that capitalism is the reason they’re homeless. There are absolutely homeless people who choose to not take their meds and/or stop doing drugs and refuse housing and assistance offered to them.
Clearly you do not understand: 1) how addictions work, 2) how mental illnesses that aren’t addiction work, or 3) that almost no one chooses to be homeless but people do fuck up.
There is no excuse to dehumanize anyone and if you’ve got yourself convinced that these people somehow got themselves where they are then you’ve fallen for the capitalist propaganda cause guess what? People who are happy, stable, and well provided for do not generally start doing drugs and people with good mental health support do not typically just stop taking their meds, but people who are comfortable with the status quo will make any excuse to make sure they get to keep what they have while ignoring that everyone has a right to that same comfort but some people need extra help getting there.
