Let's lock up people who STEAL from strores

That would be “intolerant”, you racist.

Is stealing from a multi billion dollar corporation that accounts for theft in their budget really that bad?

Why is it that a person caught stealing a 20 dollar item facing harsher punishments than a CEO exploiting their labor force 🤔?

If you want that to end, hold the politicians who give those subsidies accountable.
