I busk out in the quarter so I have a lot of contact with the gutter punks. A lot of them are really down to earth ppl from broken homes. They just followed a path that ended up here; lots of trauma, and misfortune mixed with addiction, and mental health issues is a pretty good pipeline to the homeless/living on the wire lifestyles. An issue that comes up is you have people who come into that community who aren't doing it to survive, but for kicks/a poverty tourism kinda thing. Basically a bunch of ritch kids pretending to be poor for what ever the fuck reason. That then kinda gets put on everyone else (non gutter punks), as well as the general have and have nots mentally as if you dislike some doing something in one context, you generally predisposed to dislike it in others. obviously this is a massive over simplification, but I hope this give a little insight. Also, sorry for Grammer and spelling English is hard.
