Either the OP edited to add a bunch of information or 95% of the people posting in this thread didn’t read any of the first post.

That's called a food bank, not a grocery store.

"Polymarket - Founded by Shayne Coplan, Polymarket is a prediction market that allows users to gain/lose on the outcome of world events. "

While not a world event I wonder if I can bet on the likliehood of someone walking in on day one and taking everything in the place? Further wagers would include how long before that person is set up on the sidewalk selling that free shite?

Will be interesting. Its only 5 days and it doesn't say if its free after that or not. A noble idea, feeding people ought not be a political stunt.

Feeding people is retarded or feeding people not being a political stunt is retarded?

Feeding people is kind of a big deal in the bible, best I remember. I am not a Christian and am in fact an atheist BUT I am pretty certain if there is a God they were of the opinion that feeding people was generally considered a good idea. If they weren't of that opinion their chroniclers certainly attribute quite a few quotes to them insinuating that it was generally a good idea to feed folks.

If you meant my statement that "feeding people ought not be a political stunt" being retarded I don't even know what that would mean. Are you of the opinion it should be a political stunt, and its better if a politician or a politician's supporters feed folks and take credit for doing so to engender political favor than it is to feed folks and to do so only because folks need to eat? That's beyond retarded, that's fricking insane. I know its really hard for folks like yourself to think for much longer than it takes to read a bumper sticker but if you have a valid point you ought to make it clear and not as convoluted as "This is retarded" because people capable of thinking critically with the attention span that exceeds that of a gnat is never going to take your meaning. Can you expand on what "this is retarded" means or does it simply mean what you wrote afterwards and you "have no idea where to start"....that is a legit answer, that you have no idea....a lot of people do not and never will have....nothing to be ashamed of, so you aren't capable of critical thinking and logistical applications...you ain't alone, many less intellectually gifted people share your burden...

There are lines for hours everytime something is listed as a giveaway. Free food, toys, clothes, water, food....long lines of cultcha enthusiasts (mostly driving luxury vehicles) stacked up hours in advance. Losers on welfare have nothing better to do with their lives.
