Bullshit. Shoplifting accounts for less shrinkage than expiring products. We throw away more food than is stolen. Let that sink in. More food goes to a landfill than to shoplifters.
It’s not whataboutism. You said shoplifters drive up prices. That is objectively false, as demonstrated by the disparity between what is lost to shrinkage (less than 2%, and that includes all shrinkage, not just shoplifting) and food waste, roughly 30-40% of all food in the USA.
Your anger is misplaced, and you are actively making society worse.
You’re being overly aggressive and argumentative. That behaviour is not welcome in this community. Please read the rules in the sidebar before participating in this community again. If you break the rules again you will be banned.
you said (wrongly) “shoplifters are contributing to rising grocery prices”, and then, once corrected, doubled down (but now without any clear reasoning as to why) that shoplifters are somehow affecting your life and are worse than any one else (?!?!).
So I drew attention to how you’re similar to a character from classic French literature who has a similar motivation, and yet I’m the immature one?

They literally did the math for you. If there is even a price hike based on this, you’re basically getting mad about 1 cent of a 40 cent price hike.
Yes I am. Thats my 1 cent. And thus your argument is no more. Try again mate
Get a load of this Javert.

No you haven’t. You just keep slandering people and making provable false statements.
