          Some neighborhoods tried, shops ended up closing, causing a lot of problems for the community. The corpos won’t make it easy to pull one over on them.

            Obvs more complicated than that, but generally.

            And like, if you can’t get groceries in your neighborhood; just organize raids into more affluent ones?

              Yes, but that will just end in violence among ourselves fighting for the last can of beans. I’m all for sticking it to big corp, but innocent people can’t get hurt in the crossfire.

              Forcing a store to close only make the underpaid staff jobless. The execs can go open up shop somewhere else, or have enough of a financial cushion to not give a fuck and retire.

                among ourselves

                Lolno. Thats not us, and any idiot who defends their corporate masters’ property against a hungry mob is not someone i would ever include in ‘us’

                Remember; the food exists. This is just a distribution system.

                  “among ourselves” is the all poor people fighting over the now limited food supply that your raids caused. If you think everyone is going to peacefully work together to properly ration that shit out, you’re nuts.

                  The rich will be laughing from their mansions with food shipped directly to their mouth.

                    people, especially poor desperate people, immediately go to shit in a crisis

                    No. This is the opposite of how that works. This has been studied. Go jack off your stuffed tiger alone if you like, but i don’t need to see that.

                    food shipped directly

                    Babe, thats still gettable.
