Looting or boycotts, you need a certain amount of people dedicated to the cause to make corpos sweat. Sporadic actions by varying groups for different reasons is a mild inconvenience and achieves little. Not to say we shouldn't be doing both, we absolutely should, but it needs to be organized and I don't think there's a large enough political body that would adopt these tactics yet.

I'd also like to add the looting small shops for no reason other than fuck capitalism isn't a great message. If the owner was a dick then go for it and make it known why. Large chains aren't going to punish employees for shoplifting, at least there hasn't been any real evidence to support that. They threaten to close stores all the time due to "crime" but it's never once panned out to be the real reason if they do wind up closing a store. I wouldn't worry about the employees, it's a very slim chance that they'll see any punishment for it and even then, that could be used as a radicalizing force to bring more people into the movement
