It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

remember: if you see someone shoplifting, no you didn't
If you see someone shoplifting, begin asking all nearby associates really weird distracting questions
or just accidentally make a mess on aisle 5 for no reason
i'm not even convinced that companies are losing this much money to shoplifting, it seems like a convenient excuse for either poor management or intentionally using the real estate wrong to do weird fucky financial fraud. I used to work at a grocery store and far, far more loss of profit came from stuff not getting sold, or stuff being broken or expiring. Sometimes a case of pickles or whatever would arrive completely busted. Sometimes the wrong thing got ordered. Sometimes stuff falls off shelves or you have hyperactive kids pick stuff up and break it. Shoplifting was a rounding error compared to all of that.
Maybe it's different in other areas, but I'm not convinced. These are gajillion dollar companies and they're being brought down by people stealing eye liner and baby formula?
Chuds have to come up with these narratives that some states simply allow shoplifting by law.
A couple months ago the Walgreens CEO admitted they were making shit up about shoplifting being so much worse the previous year or whatever. Of course by then they had already gotten the narrative out there and shut down the stores they wanted to shut down.
Food/product waste is another extremely ~~stupid~~ evil thing we have to deal with yeah, shit sucks.
