Stealing from wealthy corporations is an extremely valid and morally acceptable form of protest. Hell, it's a morally good thing to do even if it's not meant as a protest.

I'm not going to defend assaulting the guards, though, except in the case of self-defense. Store security guards have no business using force against shoplifters, and most company policies align with that fact.

Why would the state patrol possibly want to do anything about this? Cops are cops, and cops protect each other from perceived enemies.

This is happening in the wealthiest nation in human history. The government has an unquestionable obligation to provide relief for these people. Suggesting that keeping the victims of this disaster in the area and going to work while their homes are still burning is an acceptable answer is revolting. Fuck this disgusting "but what about the economy" attitude.

I genuinely don't care. Using the location of ongoing mass human sufferring as a tourist destination is disgusting and entirely indefensible. "I couldn't get a refund" is not a valid excuse.

Having effectively unlimited resources and the unbreakable power and control over the rest of us that comes with it sounds pretty elite to me.

Visiting a burning, inhospitable hellscape where people are actively dying and the rest are having their entire lives destroyed, and doing it for fun because "well, we've been planning it for a while, and want to go somewhere as a family and can't come up with anything else exotic enough for our standards on short notice" is incredibly trashy and selfish.

They sound like shitty people, honestly, and I hope they have an awful time.

How could anyone seriously come up with a take this stupid?

"It's ok that the state murders peopl for fake crimes as long as the people not being murdered don't mind."

You're a fucking psychopath.

Uh, no. I don't even know how you came to that conclusion. Low unemployment means a smaller pool of people to fill open positions.

Good. Sustaining an economy that exploits and disenfranchises the majority, or even a significant minority, is indefensible.

Not likely. Most Americans have been so brainwashed against unions that they'll oppose them even as they slowly starve because their full time job doesn't pay enough to cover rent and groceries.

Our institutions have been a joke for almost 250 years.

Hard to tell, honestly. Too many people saying shit like that unironically these days.
