How do I put this politely? Ummmm
"Marginalized' members of society" is a bit too lefty wordy for the right.
"Marginalized" has become synonymous with "victim" in many eyes from both sides of the aisle.

How do I get one of those homes but 3000 sq feet?

Spay, neuter, contain.
I like the idea of Cities of Refuge... a place for ferals and criminals to live their lives in the least restrictive environment but kept apart from regular society. They can develop their own government, economy, and do-gooders can send them care packages.
No children, just adults.

Why would I try to pander to people who are offended by marginalized members of society?

I never hear this word uttered in every day life unless I’m at church. I guess it’s trending on Xitter?

Much better than 'the unhoused'

Marginalized implies that they have been acted upon in some way to push them to the margins of society.
This isn't often true. The margins are by choice.
Perhaps more exact terminology would be Marginal. They are marginal, not marginalized.

I thought ghetto culture adherents were considered feral humans.
There's no helping the homeless issue. Too many homeless are addicts. These are people who are homeless because everything they had went into trying to get their next fix. They can't work because of their crippling addiction.

You know, throughout history those that couldn't contribute to society, were erased from society.
When did that stop being a thing?

I honestly don't see why anybody should have to pander to anyone, except maybe for cases of people with mental disabilities. Pandering actually annoys me. But I was just (poorly, in a rush) trying to point out that verbage is one of the things that netizens usually pounce upon with regularity.
Since you'd mentioned that the boards jump your case most of the time.
Right. Most of us don't use it in everyday speaking. Largely used by those in the media as a propaganda tool. Or by those who are ummm... Have it shoved into their vocabulary on a regular basis.
Idunno, to me it's an insulting word. Both for the reason that I said before, and because it assumes somebody's situation and throws a broad label on people, some of which the label doesn't apply to.
Especially the tards who use it to describe minorities. Being mixed race, a lot of the terms the "politically correct" Meatheads use for us are demeaning and insulting.

I mean, I'd agree that homelessness in America is usually due to maladaptation that used to put folks in bedlam. We didn't feel comfortable with the state of mental health facilities but just landed them on the street or prison instead.

There’s that patented elitism and “look at me” attitude.

Nah, we all know what group the term “feral” best equates to…
