    Is this a real tweet?

    Because if it is, it’s brilliant!

      Sounds like something Collinsville would say for sure.

      Lemmy users really will take the most obvious jokes at face value.

        Could’ve been a real tweet, if someone there had the balls to make the joke. Poe’s Law and all

        Something being a crime and something being immoral are two different things.

          It may not be immoral but it is unsafe.

        Quite a jump from shoplifting to genocide, which makes for extremely poor rhetoric. You should’ve at least listed every next step, e.g.: shoplifting -> robbery -> armed robbery -> murder -> several other steps -> genocide. Which still looks absurd but like, less.

        It was once a crime for black people to sit at the front of a bus in America. Guess that means Rosa Parks is responsible for the Holocaust.

        Thank the gods we had you to point it out.
