ALT FEED THE PEOPLE - FAT THE RICH On Friday December 15th, a merry band of miscreants entered Whole Foods and liberated a variety of foods to return necessary resources to our communities. The People harvested and prepared these items, and this food belongs to the People. We are merely giving back what is already ours. We assert that corporations like Amazon and Whole Foods do a tremendous amount of harm: hoarding wealth and resources, stealing labor, and destroying the land we live on. When we purchase food from Whole Foods, only a small fraction of what we spend is going back to those doing the labor to produce the food - the vast majority of it is funneled into Jeff Bezos's coffers, where it is in turn reinvested in weapon manufacturing, war, and big oil. Furthermore, Amazon's contract for Project Nimbus with the IOF means that Bezos profits directly from the ongoing genocide in Palestine.

ALT Boycott. Divest. Shoplift. Not another dime for genocide! As of November 2023 Jeff Bezos has a net worth of nearly 170 billion USD, an almost inconceivable amount of wealth. To put it in context, it would take you over 215 lifetimes to manually count the numbers between one and 170 billion. Corporations like Whole Foods perpetuate the myth of scarcity which falsely asserts that food must be earned and hunger is an unavoidable consequence of modern society. We see this for the lie it is, and we refute every part of it. Access to food is a human right, and we will feed our communities by any means necessary. We believe direct action is a vital form of resistance against the capitalist institutions built to crush, starve, and bleed us to death. Solidarity with shoplifters everywhere! We hope you will be inspired to take similar action wherever you are. Move like water. Take back what has always been yours. Become ungovernable.
