Activists in Tasmania have stuck up more honest promo stickers inside Coles & Woolworths stores, the two dominant supermarket chains in Australia.
@RadicalGraffiti simple and effective, very cool :)

@RadicalGraffiti

This is brilliant.
I want to do this to Walmart here in the US.

@helplessduck @RadicalGraffiti

My thought as well, we need some activist here in the US to do it too at Walmart, Kroger, etc.

#BadEconomy

@bloodravenlib @helplessduck @RadicalGraffiti be the change you want to see in the world
@RadicalGraffiti This _desperately_ needs alt-text. :)

@virtualwolf @RadicalGraffiti

Store shelves:

A sticker the bread shelf says, "We've made over $1 billion in profits whilst you can't even afford bread."

A sticker on another product says, "If you see someone shoplifting, no you didn't."

A sticker on a third product says, "We understand that times are tough, an that's why we pay out CEO over $20,000 a day. That's the median wage of a Tasmanian before the end of the week!"

@RadicalGraffiti
Love to see it. The entire western world needs a revolution. Every system is corrupted by greed.
@RadicalGraffiti where can we purchase these stickers for Queensland?
@RadicalGraffiti how appropriate. Tasmania you say? Unleash the Tasmanian devils
@RadicalGraffiti Afforable groceries to keep everyone healthy is a basic need.

@RadicalGraffiti @firstdogonthemoon

Three “Specials” labels for Woolworths, placed in-store like the regular labels. They say:

1. We understand that times are tough, and that's why we pay our CEO over $20,000 a day. That's the median wage of a Tasmanian before the end of the week!

2. If you see someone shoplifting, no you didn't.

3. We've made over $1 billion in profits whilst you can't even afford bread.

@twt @RadicalGraffiti @firstdogonthemoon This gets the boost instead of the original post, because it's accessible to everyone.
@twt @RadicalGraffiti @firstdogonthemoon Also, thank you for putting in the effort to compose a reasonable alt text.
@hosford42 @twt @RadicalGraffiti @firstdogonthemoon …you can add the hashtag #AltText4Me (caps helps) and volunteers experienced with writing for VIPs will assist. 👍
@RadicalGraffiti that's the truth. They have a dominant position and abuse that. These days support smaller stores
@RadicalGraffiti do you have examples of stickers about climate change in airports or on planes?
@RadicalGraffiti I don't understand the last one "That's the median wage of a Tasmanian at the end of a week" .. $20,000 PER WEEK ?!! Sure it's not "at the end of the year ?".
@RadicalGraffiti you might want to add alt text for these images. It'll take less than a minute.
@RadicalGraffiti this will soon be lumped in with terrorism because we need to protect the children, er I mean rich.
@RadicalGraffiti maybe it's good that Woolworths died in the UK in 2007

idk if it's different from Australian woolworths though
@RadicalGraffiti We need this in Canada. The food cartel in this country led by Galen Weston Jr., Michael Medline and Eric La Flèche have spoken and told us that they are not making excessive immoral profits. #FourthEstate #CdnMedia #Postmedia oh look, belly button lint.
@RadicalGraffiti This doesn’t scare them. Reminding them that it’s too expensive to start a family? That TERRIFIES them.
@RadicalGraffiti can you add alt text so I can boost your post. Thanks

@RadicalGraffiti Suggested alt texts:
A bright yellow shelf tag in front of bags of bread: "Special: We've made over $1 billion profits whilst you can't even afford bread." There's a QR code and a Woolsworths logo at the bottom.

A bright yellow shelf tag: "Special: If you see someone shoplifting, no you didn't." There's a QR code and a Coles logo at the bottom.

@RadicalGraffiti Last one:

@RadicalGraffiti We need way more of this kind of thing in the US.
@RadicalGraffiti To make a difference, they’d do better to complain about government printing money and spending than engage in this envious class warfare and Incitement to theft.

@RadicalGraffiti
I'd love to boost the heck out of this - all 3 mastodon logins.

Alas, no alt text, so I can't.

It's not *that* difficult to not be ableist. Give it a go.

@RadicalGraffiti 😆👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤️

First image: A tag on a bread shelf that looks like it's advertising a special but says "We've made over $1 billion in profits whilst you can't even afford bread."

Second image: The tag on an apple bin says, "If you see someone shoplifting, no you didn't."

Third image: The tag on the glass door of a dairy case says, "We understand that times are tough, and that's why we pay our CEO over $20,000 a day. That's the median wage of a Tasmanian before the end of the week!"

post things like this on college campuses.

"we've paid out over a billion dollars to redundant and ineffective administrators whilst raising tuition and reducing the quality of outcomes for students"

"our billion dollar font of infinite money could be spent today on reduced tuition and increased teacher pay but we choose not to because the football coach needs to make millions of dollars."

@RadicalGraffiti

Had no idea Tasmanians could be as cheeky as the mainland brothers, but boy am I glad to see it!

@RadicalGraffiti Come on #Canada. This is one way for the silent majority to speak out.
@RadicalGraffiti Want some for Loblaws here in Canada!

@RadicalGraffiti

@tomatospy @riskydotbiz

You might appreciate these 🙂🤷‍♂️

@RadicalGraffiti here are a few more from Instagram.

Three fake Coles supermarkets “Specials” labels, placed in-store like the regular labels. They say:

1.
$10 Curtis Stone dinners? Not in this economy!

2.
We've made over $1 billion in profits whilst the price of your food goes up, up, up!

3.
Down, down affordability is down! (But our shareholders love it)

@RadicalGraffiti and a couple more.

Two fake Woolworths supermarkets “Specials” labels, placed in-store like the regular labels. They say:

1.
2 for 1 DEAL: We're fucking over you AND farmers.

2.
The fresh profits people

@RadicalGraffiti I'd love to see these in my local Countdown (the trading name under in NZ by the same company).

$8.80 NZD for a pound of butter - not even a bougie brand.

Might need to hunt down a printer 🤔

@RadicalGraffiti omg I would so plaster those all over publix… I know supermarket margins are pretty thin (from experience working in grocery mgmt) but the producers are fkn shameless - Kraft, Conagra, Tyson, IBP, Coca Cola etc - they’re all still price gouging us. Even the venerable old Aldi is barely lower than the big chains, and that includes Walmart. I remember the days when Aldi and save a lot were half what the big chains were.
