  • This thread has enlightened me on how biased and irrational lemmy is (more than usual). So far you guys have claimed it’s:

    1. false flag operators
    2. valid because the college “supports” Israel
    3. just dumb teenagers that don’t really care about the cause and just wanna destroy property
    4. okay to deface “private” stuff like bank walls but not books for a “private” library?
    5. really dumb people that can’t possibly be on your side
    6. people that just want to destroy
    7. somewhat justified because it brought attention to the most talked about issue? 🤣
    8. “a joy of punching down on people/institutions I guess?” that’s a direct quote, holy shit 😂
    9. “I appreciate the spirit, but people who read books are probably the wrong demographic to aim this kind of messaging at.” holy moly the cope is unreal

    There’s some that are actually being honest and saying there’s no good reason because there isn’t. I appreciate those commenters.

    I look forward to being banned for trolling AKA disagreeing with you guys!












  • I sympathize with this but your situation is very anecdotal and on the extreme end of the poor spectrum. Most of Americans in need of government assistance largely benefit from it.

    The problem with the post is that it’s a point of view by way of ignorance. No one steals carts full of baby formula and diapers (mostly formula) to give away a la robin hood style. They do it to sell on the streets or to cut drugs with it. That’s just the facts.




  • I fucking hate this take. It’s so middle school edgy it cuts my cringe receptors into pieces.

    I get what you guys are trying to say but most people aren’t stealing to feed their babies or provide them with diapers. Most of the people are stealing so they can sell it on the streets. Where WIC and welfare can’t help pay for it.

    I swear, have any of you been poor ever?
