    I have never once met a shoplifter who was struggling or actually needed what they stole, ever. Most shoplifters I’ve met were kids from well-off families who felt entitled to anything they could get their hands on.

        He hasn’t met you.

        I am the richest man on the planet. You haven’t met the richest man on the planet.

        Anyone can claim anything on the internet, it would take the most gullible of people to believe everything they read. It’s weird that you expect him to be gullible.

          There’s a 1 in 7 billion chance that you’re the richest mans on the internet.

          25% of Americans will experience food insecurity this year.

          I don’t trust you because I don’t trust you’re 1 in 7 billion, I trust them because I trust that if they’re not within the like 1/2 who have experienced food insecurity at some point in their lives, another lurker or two might be

    Yeah no. Not going to encourage or enable a society of looters. If we are looking for justice let’s start eating the super rich.

      Stealing ps5 games to be sold and buy food? Maximum ethicality.

      Remember, if a video game studio closes, no one would feel their presence missing. If food companies start closing? We’d literally starve!
