The New Boogeymen

Someone just pulled one of the hallway fire alarms in my building, most likely the same maladjust(s) who left a cigarette burn on an elevator flyer and a broken beer bottle there weeks later, nothing like which has ever happened pre-maladjust(s), and yet according to my neighbor, the building manager just told the fire department a homeless person pulled the alarm, as both "homeless person" and "antifa" are the new go-to boogeymen here and now--offered as the only plausible explanation with a straight face, no less, an insistence on fiction presented through bared teeth barring empathy, or reality.
