No - they're pseudo-progressive on both fronts. It's not really that. They're passive aggressive. The phrase that always goes through my mind in this city is ineffectual asshole.
"Passive-aggressive people regularly exhibit resistance to requests or demands from family and other individuals often by procrastinating, expressing sullenness, or acting stubborn."
"What do we want!?"
"Ending homelessness!"
"When do we want it?"
"It's impossible!"
This is how a society collapses, when people think they know who "refuses" to take care of themselves and who simply cannot.
