I went into Walmart yesterday for my annual soap/shampoo/mouthwash bulk purchase as they have the products I like at the best price (in bulk). I got to the section and it was all locked up behind glass...

I turned around and walked right out. No idea where I'm gonna get it from now, but I'm not gonna support that bullshit.

The claims of mass losses due to shoplifting have been proven false multiple times over. These are just racist store policies intended to make you spend more time in their store or to buy online or from mobile apps.

Enshitification keeps on keeping on.

I buy those items from my large grocery store. They have sales too so the goods are fairly priced.

In my old rite aid I saw a bunch of shop lifters stealing goods, but nothing was done about it. Saw it several times. Security lets them leave.
