That feels like an eye for an eye logic. Shoplifting has a very real impact and incentives dystopian surveillance even more.

I don’t normally mention people stealing but that’s mostly because it is plain obvious as they are terrible at being inconspicuous. They only time I mentioned that I saw someone stealing is at a dollar general where there was a single employee.

Also if you do see someone stealing do not approach them or accuse them of stealing. That can go very badly and could lead to a serious escalation.

Fun fact, dollar general has a habit of locking employees in the store and demanding they do work off the clock.

Dollar general has stolen now more from it’s own employees than anyone has ever stolen from dollar general. That’s before you get to the horrifically unethical shit they get up to that’s legal.

Fuck em.

Oh on that case why don’t you just go and burn down the store with everyone inside. I’m sure that’s what they deserve.

Seriously though I don’t see how one justifies the other. Fighting fire with fire never goes well.

Here’s another fun fact, wage theft is the biggest single source of theft in the US.

You’re up in arms against individual thievery and simping for the biggest thieves in the country.
