Reply to comment by geoemrick in Thieves walk out of Downtown Jersey City Best Buy with $20K in Apple products by imaluckyduckie

One Nike store closing is not best buy closing a location due to theft, you fucking idiot. And they could literally afford to keep it up indefinitely if they felt like it. Nike annual revenue for 2022 was $46.71B, a 4.88% increase from 2021. And the other company you brought up, Target, their annual revenue for 2022 was $106.005B, a 13.3% increase from 2021.

Steal from them. If they're closing a store and putting people out of work, steal from them more.

And the dumbfuck press calls about "organized retail theft" are the stupidest shit ever, kind of like you. It's dudes shoplifting, not the fucking mob. Unclutch your pearls and rise off your fainting couch, you dumb puss.

Why don’t you go run a store that is losing money and tell me how long it stays open you incredibly amazingly talented savant human being who can keep stores that are losing money open.

And no, corporate does not bail out an indivisible store, corporate profits don’t save a store losing money. Simple as that.

*unprofitable

You like advocating brutalizing people, stealing from them, being a general POS by taking what's not yours. You have no decency and treat other humans like garbage while claiming your views are because you are against abuse.

You advocate for abuse. Stealing is wrong; it's not your shit. If you disagree with that company don't patronize them. Vote for a politicians that will tax corps more. Be an adult.

Don't deal with the world the same way a 5 year old would. Grow up.

What a baby. First wants to take what’s not theirs and believes they are entitled to other people’s stuff.

Then cries and wishes violence upon someone on the Internet who simply said “stealing is wrong no matter who it is.”

So embarrassing for you.

You’re so pleasant. What an upstanding citizen.

And lastly, stealing is brutalizing. Taking shit that’s not yours is brutalizing someone. It’s violating. It’s a crime. It’s wrong. It’s disgusting. Deplorable.

You need to get help. You constantly insult and cuss me out when I simply state that you advocate violence (stealing is violence) against someone who has done no violence to you.

Talk about who the “shitstain” is.

Are you god? Do you get to determine who is “well off enough” to be stolen from and taken advantage of? And again, Best Buy employs humans. There are victims, even lowly paid employees, to store shut downs that are 100% caused by unattainable stores due to theft.

But you won't because you're a goddamn pile of aids needles. The dumbest, most useless shitface around who thinks they know anything.

Even IF as you claim they don’t have to close when being stolen from, but still do, my point stands

STEALING=STORES CLOSING

So go ahead and be a complete hypocritical moron who says they are all about the little guy while also being in favor of the little guys LOSING THEIR JOBS when the store closes.

Pathetic. Sad. Childish. Grow up.

geoemrick t1_j00ezy9 wrote

Here’s math for you:

1,000 total items go on the shelves. They cost $1,000 to buy from the supplier.

Each item has a 50% markup, so each item will cost $1.50.

500 items are stolen. That’s $750 lost. The other 500 items are sold and $750 is made.

THAT’S A NET LOSS OF $250. IT’S NOT PROPAGANDA LIKE YOU WANT IT TO BE. IT’S MATH.

Stop listening to the bullshit propaganda that wants anarchy, destruction, pain, suffering through violent degenerate criminal acts like stealing.

The math is there.

Stealing closes stores. Stores closing means regular people lose jobs AND the community loses stores and eventually don’t have access to food and other services.

it’s so fucking obvious, I hope you never, EVER interact with society as a whole because you’re such a degenerate you’d just ruin everything for everyone else, you selfish asshole.

If a store doesn’t make money and loses it instead because the product is flying out the door and no one is paying for it, the store cannot stay open due to basic economics.

If you lose enough money, you go out of business. These are facts.

geoemrick t1_j02gpda wrote

It does have point. It’s truth. Stealing=store losing product without making profit.

Not making profit=losing money.

Losing money=store goes out of business.

Simple.

Also, even if you had a certain amount stolen from your store and you still came out with a profit, and month after month you kept seeing items stolen, why would you want to remain open?

When you can just close and go somewhere else without shitty people who steal your shit.

For real. It’s moronic. No one wants to deal with that bullshit, not even you. If you had shit constantly stolen from your home you’d be like I either have to move or arm myself.”

geoemrick t1_j05iqrf wrote

You keep repeating the same shit because you have no answer.

It’s simple. If you allow thieves to keep stealing your product, you WILL go out of business. You will also have to lay off regular working class folks.

Therefore: stealing =/= “just hurt” the mega corps, and on top of that, the richest don’t even feel it. It’s the managers, floor employees, etc who will be laid off.

Not to mention that it’s not your shit. Find some other, civilized way to “right wrongs” besides fucking up everyone else’s day and making people lose their jobs. How incredibly selfish, sick and twisted of you.

Your entire philosophy is a total disaster and embarrassment, not to mention cruel, abusive, violent, demeaning, and sub-human.

geoemrick t1_izn1oz8 wrote

Imagine this:

Imagine you won $500 mil in the lottery.

You don’t do anything charitable with it. You selfishly spend $100 million on houses, mansions, whatever.

Because you “have plenty” and aren’t being charitable with your money, do you deserve to be stolen from?

First, let me cut to the chase: no.

If you say “yes,” the next question would be: who is the morality police? How much is it “okay” to be stolen from you?

If someone considers you “too well off” and wants to steal from you, why not someone with “only” $100 mil?

$50 mil?

$1 mil?

$500K?

$100K?

$1K?

Where does it stop? Where are the “rules” about WHO it’s okay to steal from depending on how much they have and how moral they’ve been in their lives?

There is always someone who could look at you and see you as “having a lot,” and that person could use your argument to fuck up your whole life. It’s a slippery slope of “exceptions here, why not exceptions there.”

So the obvious answer is: no one should steal from anyone. Ever. It’s fair. It’s just. It’s right.

Your argument is the opposite. It’s wrong. It’s sick. It leads to violence, as I’ve said. Perpetuating breaking into something and stealing is advocating for pain and violence. Destruction. Suffering. That’s what you are advocating for.

Stealing=wrong is the simple, fair way to avoid pain and violence (not that there’s still not pain or violence, but if stealing were okay then there’s be A LOT more of it).

You do however, need to understand that the world is bigger than you and just because at YOUR store they didn’t close or fire employees for not catching thievery, it doesn’t mean that other stores don’t do that.

And when you are okay with stealing you are okay with people being treated like shit. That’s not a lie. Try again.
