In a tweet, she said: "Can you please explain this? Do white people not steal then? Absolutely disgusting and not to mention racist!!!!"

you know how decisions like this get made?

when the store checks their inventory and discovers they have sold most of their stock of white make-up but almost none of their black make-up, yet somehow they're nearly out of both of them

I wonder if they could get away with demanding their pronouns be their full legal name.

They should identify as Innocent Of All Charges, so every time you say Ezra Miller Innocent Of All Charges, you also have to specify that they are innocent of all charges.

I love how it doesn't take much for self styled progressive film robert to go full fash

It'd be easier to find the days in which he doesn't advocate that the powerful just ignore the law, demand the ending of democracy or call for nearly all of the non-American population (and half of the American population) of the planet to be exterminated for being "obsolete" unlike himself.

The journey to how fast they declared Zaslav a maga, racist, nazi is amazing.

And now they keep repeating it with the utmost certainty until no one questions it anymore.

its because when you cop a ban for even mild pushback on insanity - because playing devils advocate was #cancelled by the progressive catholic church - the only direction the insanity can go is to ratchet up further until it becomes It Is Known.

Let's say that I'm a card game shop. I sell Magic, Pokemon, and YuGiOh booster packs. I notice that a lot of the YuGiOh booster packs are being stolen, so I put anti theft tags on them. That's a pretty logical decision, right?|

To me, a similar case could very, very easily be happening here. They notice that the darker tones of makeup are getting stolen at a rate above the usual shrinkage rate, so they put security/anti theft tags on them.

They even say so in the article

"Our stores may sometimes use security tags on items which have recently been subject to theft and the decision to do so changes from store to store.

If people want to fight racism, I'm right there with them. But absent evidence to the contrary, the explanation of "All of our makeup is getting stolen a ton, and we're only going to put anti theft tags on the makeup for black people" seems a bit more ridiculous than "We noticed a few makeup SKUs were seeing higher than expected rates of theft, so we secured those SKUs". The latter seems more reasonable, and the more likely explanation here.

Holy fuck this take is awful.

Willfully defending systemic racism, oof.

In the example you cited I would put all those items in a cabinet which only staff can access so customers have to ask for them. Not put tags on one specific item.

oof oof, shit take fam, this privilege, I can't even, etc etc


also if you want to talk about equal protection of products divided by race that's one discussion, but to say that for the example he cited? magic, pokemon, and yugioh all need to be protected equally because one of them is stolen?

If I recall correctly it was Burzum, but just working off memory.

hahah, well of course. the most overrated pseudo-intellectual metal band of all time.. and yeah the frontman is an extremist idiot of some sort, iirc he believes in silly pagan stuff and dabbles in "racial theories" so neonazi is probably an apt description.

i DO know some people who listen to Burzum and claim fervently not to be racist, fanboying over Neil deGrasse Tyson (who is black of course) and enjoying black music/art... so its weird. what am i supposed to think of these folk..? i know crypto-nazis exist but yea i dunno. maybe they are just ignorant. or want attention by being edgy and contrarian.

there seems to be more evidence of this dude being a bigot than just wearing that shirt though so in his case its just more evidence on the pile i guess, so yeah fuck him. even IF he is "just trolling" or something its not much better, a fuckface is still a fuckface.

Obviously there are numerous socio-economic reasons for why a higher percentage of darker skinned people are in a financial position where they can't afford make up but these tags are put on the products that are stolen the most.

No, you’d protect them all, as they all fall under the umbrella of easy smuggled items with decent resell value. Not to mention: if you only protect one, what’d you think the shoplifters would move on to?

Dark skinned people are not going to steal make up designed for lighter skin for personal use, come on. You can't tag every item in the store that's not a viable solution.

What? You tag what is being stolen. This is some 'all houses matter' bs.

This is a great video if you want to understand the bullshit behind corporate anti shoplifting practices.

I've liked a lot of this guys work but this video seems pretty ridiculous. It implies that 0.5% of revenue lost to shoplifting is basically nothing when that is clearly not the case.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/tesco-put-security-tags-on-make-up-for-dark-skin-but-not-lighter-tones.615798/#post-91059834

Tesco is not going to go broke tagging the entire make up line instead of just the darker tones.

This I agree with. It's also stupid of Tesco not to see how optically terrible this is, but there is nothing inherently wrong with tagging products that are stolen more. 0.5% of revenue is a lot of money lol

https://www.resetera.com/threads/tesco-put-security-tags-on-make-up-for-dark-skin-but-not-lighter-tones.615798/page-2#post-91088169

In this instance they admit that these items weren't meant to be tagged though.

I mean yeah, what else are they meant to say at this point, "sorry about that, it's just darker skinned people steal more makeup"?

This is systemic racism, where the systems at play lead to unequal outcomes, not the racist actions of any one person in the chain.

You responded to someone asking to why ERA hates this movie with post that makes it sound like ERA members were pulling concerns from thin air, when it clearly was on the minds of a lot of people given this movie's connection to the Aurora, Colorado shooting.

It took me a month to get to that cunt on the bridge. I just got to Volcano Manor this week.

There was no connection you dumbfuck. Might as well worry about shootings at every comic book movie.

When did Era decide the first Joker was bad? Lol.

I enjoyed the first one, I'm in for the second one.

I really wish people would stop assuming that everyone here has the exact same opinion of media.

I didn't really like the first movie, I know people here who did. I'll probably watch this streaming at some point for gaga.

They admitted they just made that shit up but claim they're right anyway:

There was no connection to the Colorado shooting. Good lord something about this movie that makes people turn into bigger clowns than it's subject.

Film in the same franchise starring the character that the shooter fashioned his appearance after... but yeah no connection.

Just looked that up, made up shit.

The DA said this shooter had no connection or obsession with the character. It was an unfounded rumor that caught fire because a batman movie screening happened to be shot up. Tragic event but latching it onto this completely unrelated flick to spur up panic is tacky as hell and continues to be embarrassing.

Aight, I was wrong about him fashioning his appearance, but my point was always the concerns were about copycats.

Like it didn't get headlines, but there was increased security for BVS opening weekend too because of Aurora. And by you're definition that was completely "unrelated" too.

It was, there's nothing about Batman that makes someone shoot people.

  Seven years before Joker was released and the shooter wasn't inspired by the joker.

The Joker Didn’t Inspire the Aurora Shooter, but the Rumor Won’t Go Away
James Holmes was not dressed as the Joker when he killed 12 people in a movie theater in 2012, but the potent rumor continues to provoke fear—and worries of copycats.

Edit: Spent time finding citations.

Like every good moral panic it reaches the stage where they want to will it into existence.

"I'm so worried that a copycat killer will show up in the King's theater downtown at the 20:30 showing, entering through the backdoor that is lightly propped open by the lazy janitor who doesn't want to bother with the keys. They'll likely use a semi automatic shotgun which is sold at various locations like here, here and here"

Vonocourt is acting like a cunt in that thread. 

Why that user isn’t thread banned? Is clear she (?) doesn’t have any intention of talk positively about the film and just wants to bitch about imaginary incel uprisings.

[VomKriege]

I’m never going to theatres again. So this is just another reason to not pay for streaming services.

She should for posting misinformation tbh

[Polident Hive]

Frozen 2 and the last Spider-Man movie had more stories of violence than Joker. Just last year there was a theater shooting during a Purge movie. Nobody was dumb enough to blame those movies.

I miss when everybody made fun of Jack Thompson, warnings on rap CDs, winners don’t do drugs.

At least you can laugh at Ben Garrison, you leftist untalented hacks.
