When shopping, I like to make it seem extremely likely I am stealing to help poor people who actually need to steal to survive.
For example, when picking up a soda, I furtively look to my left and right to make sure no one is looking and crouch my head down. I pick up things and make it seem like I may be putting it in a pocket at times before putting it back. When security guards say hi, I don’t make eye contact or reply back and put my head down as if hiding.
I never actually steal and haven’t ever shoplifted anything.
I have been kicked out stores many times for abnormal behavior, but never while stealing.
The distinction you’re trying to make is stealing luxuries vs stealing necessities. Sure, we could argue basically “fuck megacorps” and that’s debatable to steal whatever, but this is about us.
If someone’s stealing the basic necessities like food, nobody saw shit.
If you’re stealing a TV, that just makes you a thief.
Imagine if like 5% or so of people in a Grocery store acted like he does. Would be so much easier to actually steal something with security being busy all the time with the non-stealers
i’v never seen security care about theft outside of the egregious electronics and stuff like that, those guys don’t get paid enough to care about slippage
Do you live in an area with poor people and lots of shoplifting? Do you work in grocery store security surveillance? Do you work as a 711 clerk? Is this an area of expertise or are you just guessing?

Lol, I used to do this as a kid. Didn’t steal anything, but I deliberately acted shady just to see what would happen. Nothing ever did.
…how does that help anyone at all?
It increases the noise to signal ratio in their attempts to look for food thieves.
If you ever see someone stealing food.
No you didn’t.
I’ve seen shoplifters stealing granola bars or chips before. Not said a word.
Stealing electronics? Fuck that person.
