If you’ve been following the news, you’ll know that shoplifting and looting have been on the rise across the US in recent months, with retailers from San Francisco to Portland to Washington, D.C., forced to close up shop in the face of mounting losses from the spate of increasingly brazen burglaries.

And you’ll probably also be aware that the phenomenon is not confined to the US, with businesses in Canada and the UK and France and Australia and elsewhere similarly reporting an increase in robberies and theft since the scamdemic.

And, as a result, frustrated shoppers are turning their backs on brick-and-mortar businesses and vowing to buy everything on Amazon. (Or, more cynically, characters that may or may not be completely fictional are posting TikTok videos saying that they’re turning their backs on brick-and-mortar business and vowing to buy everything on Amazon and getting plenty of tabloid press coverage for doing so.)

The point is that once you feel the problem to be real, the would-be social engineers know that they can present their pre-arranged “solution” to this problem to a terrified public and the majority will go along with it.

“Of course we need to fingerprint and iris scan to shop in the real world these days. And of course we can’t use cash to make our purchases anymore. How else could we possibly solve the shoplifting crisis?!”
