I just watched Asmongold’s video “The internet was not lying about this…” and one part stood out: a woman on social media saying she’ll go into a store, grab up whatever she wants, and walk out without paying — if her SNAP benefits are cut. In this reaction, I’m calling that out. Threats of theft and intimidation aren’t a legitimate way to respond to policy. They undermine the conversation, the system, and the people we should actually be helping.

Threatening theft is not protected protest—it’s coercion. “If my benefits stop I’ll just steal from the store” isn’t a statement of hardship, it’s a threat. That kind of language shifts the system from dialogue to intimidation.
Retailers and innocent consumers get caught in the crossfire. The result: higher prices, more security, less trust, stores closing, people fired, less jobs
If you believe benefits are being cut unfairly, you undermine your argument when you threaten theft. Policy change happens through advocacy, voting, the courts—not looting.
The posts saying “we’ll walk out with carts and not pay” provide ammunition to critics who say welfare recipients are irresponsible—which may hurt those genuinely in need.
Stores facing threats may raise prices, reduce services, or need more policing—all of which can affect low-income communities the most.
Taxpayers who fund SNAP expect the system to work—not be associated with violence or theft. Threats reduce goodwill.
