Retailers in Europe, like Booths supermarkets, and the United States, like Walmart, are pulling back on having self-checkout in light of complaints and shoplifting.

      Is this a real tweet?

      Because if it is, it’s brilliant!

        Sounds like something Collinsville would say for sure.

        Lemmy users really will take the most obvious jokes at face value.

          Could’ve been a real tweet, if someone there had the balls to make the joke. Poe’s Law and all

          Something being a crime and something being immoral are two different things.

            It may not be immoral but it is unsafe.

          Quite a jump from shoplifting to genocide, which makes for extremely poor rhetoric. You should’ve at least listed every next step, e.g.: shoplifting -> robbery -> armed robbery -> murder -> several other steps -> genocide. Which still looks absurd but like, less.

          It was once a crime for black people to sit at the front of a bus in America. Guess that means Rosa Parks is responsible for the Holocaust.

          Thank the gods we had you to point it out.
