I think it would be better to actually change things. This and other everyday examples show that this means overcoming capitalism.
- JohnFen 3y agoWe need more people who are unwilling to do work that they think is harmful in exchange for a paycheck.

- phailhaus 3y agoOvercoming capitalism or overcoming the concept of value? They did this because they felt that the value they could recoup from shoplifters/deterrence was more than the cost of building and maintaining this system. None of that requires capitalism.
- Anthony-G 3y agoI think you’re being unfairly harsh. It’s good for workers to refuse to carry out orders that are unethical. Ideally, such actions would be carried out collectively by a union branch or some other worker organisation. But if that’s not feasible, the next best thing is for individuals to push back on unethical initiatives. Also, not everyone agrees that the best way to counter the ills of capitalism is to replace the whole system with something else that may be better but could be worse (in different ways). Being so casually dismissive of such people’s effort to improve things within capitalism means they won’t ever be interested in ideas that go beyond reformism.
