me: you shouldn’t report someone for shoplifting essentials like food or nappies, and the greater injustice is a system which criminalises the poor and protects the wealth of the rich.

What’s the actual legal position if I take something from the shelves without paying and put it in the Foodbank collecting basket? I’ve not removed it from the shop so is it technically shoplifting? xx

And likewise if someone burgles your house you shouldn’t report them because they might need your goods more than you do.

The blanket assumption that only those too poor to afford them would steal such items shows you clearly don't have much in the way of life experience nor have you known many poor people.

Theft is theft. They should be reported. "Essentials" today, none essentials tomorrow.

really - message goes out - these good are 'free'
soon.
shop does not bother selling these items.. or just closes.
majority of people , who may be equally as 'poor' - but would never steal - lose out.
shops are not 'charities'

The cost of thefts gets passed on with higher prices to all other customers. It isn't a victimless crime.

The little grocery shop near my house, the one that's been struggling to recover ever since lockdown, thanks you kindly for your advice
And, just to mention it, you're a total fucking idiot
