<p>For example your framing, here, for example "they do not use noisebridge for hacking" where it can be read to, still, be categorically dismissive of all homeless people who might be at noisebridge. The homeless denizens who aren't oogles often simply can't be told apart from the basic NB population.</p>
<p>If you refer to undesireable populations as oogles, you would be able to more easily avoid constructing statements that read as damning to an entire population. But hey, if you want to be sending out emails that read that way, well, at least it's not like a neck tattoo.</p>

i have been a homeless hacker myself. My issue is not with someone's
homelessness-- it's that they do not use NB for hacking. <br>
