Comment on i need an rv, and lab equipment, and a helper
Decoy321@lemmy.world 3 days agoNah this is just trying to rationalize being a dick to your fellow human being who’s trying to park. The employee making min wage isn’t caring that the carts are further, it just means they can waste more time per trip.
If you actually wanted to do something against the corporation, you shop somewhere else.

Just like the shopping cart theory itself, this is mostly just a thought experiment at this point in time.
The point of a protestation is to make it hard for others to ignore, and make it clear what the end condition is. I don’t plan on just starting to do this as an individual because it would have no impact; I still make sure my own carts get returned personally.
The point stands that our goodwill is frequently exploited for profit, often under the pretense that it’s just basic human decency.
