Of all the things to get your panties in a twist about. Oh, world’s on fire, I’m going to make cart etiquette a big thing.

Exactly, the world is on fire and www are verging ww3. People that can't do the bare minimum can't be trusted in current times.

Yeah, etiquette is important. I'll tell you off for queue jumping too, if you like. Did your parents not teach you to pick up after yourself? Do you need to be sent back to kindergarten?

We’re all on the same side here — on Lemmy and the Fediverse.

This is something I care about.

I want people to abandon corporate social media and I want them to support and use Federared options run by cool people.

That’s you.

That you spend your time worrying about carts is not really relevant to what connects us.

I just want to let you know that I can be courteous and professional and interested and interesting and still believe that carts are not a big deal.

The topic of this post, on the memes community, is shopping carts. I think it is an okay place to share our opinions about lazy people.

My choice not to return those is a political decision to make corporations pay for their privilege.

[–] ebolapie 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They just pass the cost back to us, genius. You're lazy for not returning the cart and lazy in your justification.

If you don’t like the prices don’t shop there. You might try Virtue Signalers: the grocery story for people with self esteem so low they need to attack strangers on the internet. Virtue Signalers: behold my contributions! I am worthy. My daddy was wrong in withholding his love. Virtue Signalers: I’m better than you, so fuck off.

If you don't like people bullying you for not putting back the cart don't post online about it.

[–] wowwoweowza 1 points 15 hours ago

I can’t be bullied by smug Virtue signalers. Please remember that for every cart you are painstakingly replacing, I am balancing out the universe by scattering six around haphazardly in your honor.
