@CarloAlvar38119 @Cassy_Horton @amm_chino Hey man feel free to not copy my in on any more of your weird urban decay fantasies

[adam @justscarzit11]

@olmcdonaldcieio @carney @charlescwcooke where are you finding these "better" teachers? there's a nationwide teacher shortage because the pay is shit and they're treated like shit

[adam @justscarzit11]

@brajadurai @carney @charlescwcooke there's already a huge teacher shortage because generally salaries are shit and they're treated like shit. you think getting rid of unions fixes that?

[adam @justscarzit11]

@clovis_frank @JoeyWatcherElba @abundancechud @FelisArtificus @spectrumashark @annakatherines_ man idk, I can’t make you guys want to read and understand the news. if you wanna be afraid of made up crimes on behalf of Walgreens that’s your business

[adam @justscarzit11]

@treeaston Yea except they could and they fucking don’t, don’t give me “should”. he sounds like this because he isn’t one of them and isn’t beholden to the interests and fucked up priorities mainstream dems are

[adam @justscarzit11]

@FelisArtificus @abundancechud @clovis_frank @spectrumashark @annakatherines_ so all their security theater that gets people worked up, including the original video here, was based on incorrect numbers that they misrepresented, followed by an invented crime fad

[adam @justscarzit11]

@FelisArtificus @abundancechud @clovis_frank @spectrumashark @annakatherines_ ok so “oops, we just kinda got the numbers wrong”. then they say that well actually, the problem is organized retail theft. But organized retail theft was made up by the NRF (second link I shared), except the NRF has no proof that it actually exists.

[adam @justscarzit11]

@CarloAlvar38119 @abundancechud @annakatherines_ lol buddy this isn’t some left wing investigative reports, it’s quotes from the national retail federation on a page, idk what else there is for us to talk about. take it easy

[adam @justscarzit11]

@CarloAlvar38119 @abundancechud @annakatherines_ i'll make it real simple & put it in one place for you:
- walgreens: we overcounted the numbers / actually it's still bad but its "organized retail theft": https://t.co/6lphTnYDOq
- NRF: we kinda make "organized retail crime" up and we have no proof: https://t.co/4HsxDnrew6

[adam @justscarzit11]

@CarloAlvar38119 @abundancechud @annakatherines_ lol another one of you idiots who don't have anything substantive to say. id appreciate you at least being clever next time

[adam @justscarzit11]

@CarloAlvar38119 @abundancechud @annakatherines_ they reported numbers that were too high. then they and their national lobbying group justified it by blaming "organized retail crime". then the NRF admitted that actually, they can't point to any evidence that "organized retail crime" exists. what does that add up to?

[adam @justscarzit11]

@abundancechud @clovis_frank @FelisArtificus @spectrumashark @annakatherines_ here's walgreens: https://t.co/6lphTnYDOq

and here's NRF saying they can't actually produce evidence: https://t.co/4HsxDnrew6

[adam @justscarzit11]

@abundancechud @clovis_frank @FelisArtificus @spectrumashark @annakatherines_ in the earnings call from 2023 they straight up said "we cried too much" and exaggerated shrinkage from theft. they go on to say that theft is still a problem but actually it's because of "organized retail theft", which the NRF later says it can't prove actually happens

[adam @justscarzit11]

@clovis_frank @FelisArtificus @abundancechud @spectrumashark @annakatherines_ hey man go for it if you can. i don't hear anything substantive or specific or even just kinda clever coming from you, just loser shit about i "don't understand"

[adam @justscarzit11]

@Seeaath @cowgirl_bebop Well an important one is being able to understand and fit in with culture and etiquette, and an unwillingness to do so was the start of the whole dialogue on this topic, so you’re back to the start again

[adam @justscarzit11]

@clovis_frank @FelisArtificus @abundancechud @spectrumashark @annakatherines_ the increased theft that walgreens admitted to fudging and the "organized retail crime" that the NRF invented but can't produce evidence of were the basis for the additional draconian security theater that inspired the video. i understand just fine

[adam @justscarzit11]

@TheRealDanberhe @spectrumashark @abundancechud @annakatherines_ there's always gonna be theft! i wish that weren't the case, but we live in reality. the additional theft they admitted to inventing was what they used as an excuse for all of the draconian security theater that inspired the video

[adam @justscarzit11]

@yobijneb @TimTrytitle @abundancechud @annakatherines_ "we still stand behind the idea of a crime that we made up even thought we can't point to any evidence that it happens"

[adam @justscarzit11]

@abundancechud @annakatherines_ they made up the increases! that's what they said

here's more BS from the industry. their national retail rep group admitted to making up "organized retail crime" which was a huge excuse for these security measures too: https://t.co/4HsxDnrew6
