Excerpt:

Banksy isn’t happy with Guess’ latest collaboration.

The legendary anonymous graffiti artist had a directive for his followers on Friday, encouraging them—possibly tongue in cheek, possibly not—to visit the Regent Street Guess store in London and steal the brand’s new collection that features his artwork.

“Attention all shoplifters. Please go to Guess on Regents Street. They’ve helped themselves to my artwork without asking, how can it be wrong for you to do the same to their clothes?”

    But I sincerely doubt that this community is thinking only about poor who steal from the rich in order to survive. Since this is a community for celebrating shoplifting, kids who feel they’re entitled to everything are based, actual examples are just taking what you want without paying and the pinned post explaining what this community is about ends with “let’s steal some shit”.

    This community looks like it’s just about stealing what you want, while using the plight of the poor as an excuse to steal nail polish.

      I think you are disingenuous here. You are using arguments and motivations from different people and just mix them together because they where posted in the same online space.

      My opinion as the mod and the one that started the community does not represent everyone participating here.
