through thousands of posts in D&D over a decade, I now believe I know what I'm talking about. if I post forcefully and confidently, I can convince others that is true. no one sees through my facade.

Basic income is all about improving the efficiency of society, by allowing citizens the fiscal stability to pursue long-term projects. It's about ensuring that most people can afford a basic room to rent rather than living on the street and constantly needing intervention from emergency services; it's about being able to regularly buy toothpaste so they don't need a $25,000 dental surgery; it's about ensuring that most people can afford to live a decent life, so they aren't forced to turn to crime and drugs to make ends meet; it's about having a refrigerator and a cooking unit available rather than having to shell out for unhealthy prepared meals; it's about raising kids in a secure environment so they're able to take advantage of education and become productive citizens. And overall it's about creating a good society that isn't so blinded with short-term gains that it ends up bleeding money to pay for all the quick-fixes. This principle of efficiency has been proven over and over again. Disputing the policy of basic income is also a refutation of basic economics.
