Shoplifting is OK

I gather most people have seen the video of the guy riding his bike out of Walgreens after filling a garbage bag with shoplifted loot.
Link to videoAs a result, in San Francisco, Walgreens and Target are limiting their hours.
But it's not just Walgreens and Target:

Remember all the bitching about Walgreens closing its SF stores?
Let SF systematically destroy their American dream.
Between taxes, water rates, electric rates and catastrophic drought it isn’t what it used to be. The privileged will move out and even in tech if there is no need to go to the office and therefore is no need to pay the top real estate expenses.
California, once one of my favorite states, is rapidly becoming a dystopia.

Long ago, it was understood that this kind of thing undermines a civilized society. People like order whether it is communist China or a suburb in Maryland. Reasoned arguments against such behavior don't typically work as effectively as a more direct intervention and adverse consequences.

And the person taking the video just happened to be running a video recording of the entrance of a store?

Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

Think I read where 40% of the city's citizens want to leave...
And it's not some RWEC polling site, it's the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce:
As San Francisco tries to bounce back from the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, crime and homelessness now rank among the highest levels of concerns among local residents, many who are contemplating relocating, according to a new poll.
The poll was released by the SF Chamber of Commerce and based on feedback from more than 500 San Francisco residents who are registered to vote.
It found that more than 40 percent say they plan to move out of the city in the next few years.
Lindsay Stevens just finished moving out over the weekend.
“There’s nothing worse than seeing such a beautiful place in such disarray, and I really thought I was going to be sad when the movers loaded up the last container on Saturday, and I have never been more relieved,” said Stevens.
After more than 12 years in San Francisco, Stevens recently sold her place and moved to the Palm Springs area.

I was in San Francisco a few weeks ago. Lots of homeless downtown but other neighborhoods didn’t seem that bad. I was expecting it to be worse than LA, and though my recent experiences with both cities was far from thorough, it didn’t seem to be. At least the nice neighborhoods still seemed nice.

Anybody invested in the social justice narrative and the righteousness of riots and neighborhood takeovers would disagree. Which is to say, any of the millions and millions of mainstream progressives would disagree.
Not that they would stick to that priority if disorder ever hit them in their own white upper class neighborhoods... but it mostly hasn't yet. They still proudly espouse a belief system that is free of any personal sacrifice.

Order is a bedrock of white civilization… China is white adjacent.
