Now that you've declared you are an incel and a rapist for your support of rump and PeePee, why are you still here?
You've achieved your goal of outing yourself.
This is the result of idiotic left wing policies

The only fact we have is that there is a vacant space. We have no context. Claiming anything other than that is speculation. Which you and the video makers are doing. I don't understand why this concept is so foreign to you. Can you find any information that disproves what I've said? I'll be honest, I can't find anything that disproves what he's saying. BUT....that doesn't mean either of us is right. What you seem to believe is that he MUST be right because I'm pushing back...
Yes, they will open more stores when it is profitable. I really hate to burst your bubble about business, but many businesses go under every year.
Bankruptcy Filings Rise 16.8 Percent
Total bankruptcy filings rose 16.8 percent, with significant increases in both business and non-business bankruptcies, in the twelve-month period ending Dec. 31, 2023. This accelerates a continuing rebound in filings after more than a decade of sharply dropping totals.
In fact, the jumped almost 17% last year. And, you know not every retailer is part of a big chain. Plus, big chains do shut down stores. It is a shocking concept. They don't always pick the best locations. They can't always control what the landlord will charge for rent. So, the rent could soar and make a once profitable store not profitable anymore. And, shockingly, they will close those locations. I mean, have you ever been to a mall? Stores shut down all the time for a multitude of reasons, even large stores.
Hey, shoplifting is a problem. I never said it wasn't. But why? And let me ask you this, who's fault? Are you telling me there is no shoplifting in red districts? Are you saying they are punished harsher in, say, Kentucky, and that is stopping it from happening? Because, as I said, the whole "lefty laws are fuelling this" has been debunked. You just see the videos of the brazen thieves, but ignore the reality that Walmart, Home Depot, Best Buy, CVS and other retail giants do not want their employees to confront or stop the theft.

too funny
1, did you see any construction in the video ? Oh, wait, you did not watch the video
2. now you are pointing out the loonie left city planners may have bankrupted retailers along Eglinton ave. (is that LRT abomination running yet ??) , pretty much confirming the threads title......Too funny
you rejected the factual information without watching it
what you are willing to say is irrelevant
an option was to say nothing, view the video, do some extra research if you were skeptical
who knows , had you watch the video, you might have noticed something, i.e. filming the same buildings 2 or 3 times
Thanks for confirming the threads title.

Media literacy is something I really wish you had. Maybe critical thinking. But, it is obvious, as per usual, I'm screaming into the void of ignorance. Instead, you want to make believe whatever suits your world view, and take unverified information as fact....when it supports your flawed theories.
I am pretty sure that what ever dude said is speculation on his part. We've seen that in countless videos that try to own the libs. They will cherry pick on thing and go on and on....but if you look at the big picture, they are usually wrong or misinterpreting the facts.
vacancy rates for us retail is generally mid /low single digit ie 4% To 6%
when you see a lot of vacant stores in an area something is a miss
what part of " retailing has its ongoing challenges, always has, always will " was beyond your comprehension limits ?Yes, they will open more stores when it is profitable. I really hate to burst your bubble about business, but many businesses go under every year.

people open up stores with really bad concepts, fair concepts which are mis marketed, bad overall business plans and without execution skills
shrinkage most certainly hurts
still there are hundreds of proven retail business models and on net succeeds outweighs failure
your article
business and personal
retail bankruptcies were not broken out
however you are just highlighting that idiotic left wing policies are coincidental with increased bankruptcies
not sure why you brought that up
sure they do
Target Closes Select Stores to Prioritize Team Member and Guest Safety

so once again you are dead wrong
who's fault ?????????
shoplifters
and anyone who enables them
???
no it has not
and the shoplifters know this
shoplifting has become far less risky
risk / reward trade offs
you did not watch the entire video and question someone else's media literacy ?
look,
you admitted you did not watch the video and you jumped to your predetermined conclusion
your opinion is less than worthless , its biased from the start
I am pretty sure that what ever you have said was predetermined the moment you saw the thread title
you did not watch the entire video !!!!!!!
but you will never know...... you did not watch the entire video !!!!!!!
why can you not recognize how absurd your arguments are ?
you did not watch the entire video !!!!!!!

Back to your usual name calling when you have been exposed and losing an argument I see?
Maybe next time you reshare a homophobe's post, you'll realize you are one yourself.
Will that day be the same day you realize that you called yourself a rapist and incel?
Look at who funds them its right on their website. Their leadership have ties to Obama. They want to label themselves as independent and non-partisan but they aren't. A simple 10-15 minute navigation of their website makes that clear.
As far as information is concerned, it is my belief that the methodology is flawed. First off they only had data from 24 cities. Second many jurisdictions have decided post covid to not investigate shoplifting incidents so retailers don't bother reporting them. In California they don't bother with shoplifters if the value of the goods is <$900. That renders the data non-comparative. Take SF for instance. They say that there is 5% less shoplifting in June 2023 then the average of 2018-2019. But they don't mention that there were far less stores to shoplift from since they've shut down after the huge spike of 2022.
