Google search is less than useful nowadays. Google assistant seems to be Google’s inbred idiot cousin. DDG doesn’t seem to be any better. Most of my searches give the same clickbait results that google does.

Honestly, outside of Google Maps, is there any legitimate value to any google product? Is there a single search engine that is brave enough to give 0 results and also literally parses what you’re asking instead of valuating against what the advertisers want you to see?

I dream daily of Google imploding, and every single investor at that useless company going immediately bankrupt and destitute for the disgusting, addled, brain-malware they push.

Your logic is right, but what he’s meaning is that capitalism exacerbates poverty. When homes, food, healthcare become commodities the people that can’t afford the new norm HAVE to do what they can to survive.

Yes, some-to-most shoplifters may be shoplifting for less than survival reasons, but in the same way many would argue that capital punishment risks the many at the expense of a few, villifying and prosecuting shoplifters risks the legitimate survival of a lot of people.

Hey, look, it’s somebody having a strong opinion about something they’re ignorant about!

Or it’s because many grocery chains used COVID as a reason or excuse to raise prices and refuse to lower them despite supply chains healing, during a time where literally everything a modern human needs to survive becomes nearly unreashable expensive.

But sure, it’s because cops aren’t shooting enough shiplifters.

Squatters rights lmao.

Use the tools your enemy provides.
