...and all that came of the whole affair was a bunch of bad reviews for a McDonald's, which were promptly deleted by the corporation controlling all data.

No, there was a lot more that came of this (unless you're specifically referencing the snitching part).

  • It's made business execs afraid.
  • It's shown the working class how to have solidarity.
  • It's been a rallying cry for how much the people hare the current system.
  • It's given us a martyr.
  • It’s taught the would be school shooters that they’ll get lots of positive attention for redirecting their targets towards those deserving. They’ll get labeled a folk hero, they’ll have people trying to send them money for their legal defense fund, they’ll get their name in the history books. They’ll get everything they ever wanted out of their act of violence.

And I'm sure there's more.

I guess Advent Health dropped their proposed anesthesia policy out of the goodness of their heart?

The parasites are scrapping their data online because they know plebs don't know how to check SEC filings on https://www.sec.gov/search-filings

That could maybe contain names of the people running these death machines.

Coincidentally, unrelated, happenstance fact - you can gain the ability to attend shareholder meetings by purchasing a certain amount of shares - each company sets their own level.

Y’know, exactly like the meeting Brian was on his way to that December morning.…

This thing about them not getting the promised reward needs to go viral so in the future whenever someone's thinking of turning someone in to get the reward money, they'll know they're highly unlikely to get a damn thing.

[–] FinalRemix@lemmy.world 39 points 1 week ago (2 children)

The average citizen doesn't know, care, or even understand. Nor do they want to.

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 45 points 1 week ago

That's why everyone who cares needs to spread the word.

People don't need to care. They might share it as a fun factoid, they might just say that's crazy and never think about it again

Until they're in a position to get a reward... They'll care then. That little idea they heard in passing will pop up... Maybe it gives them pause.

$10k is pretty tempting for a lot of people...a chance at a $10k reward they've heard rarely is paid out is a lot less tempting

Maybe they Google it first, maybe they think twice about if the crime is worth reporting. Maybe they see the world in black and white and believe it to be their duty

It's worth spreading some information, even to people that don't care

Wait for the next step: the franchise fires the employee because of several 1 star reviews and death threats

The owner class and their government muppets are flexing right now as if they want to inflame tensions.

Or are they not reading the room?

[–] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 112 points 1 week ago (5 children)

They have learned over decades that they can do whatever the fuck they please. They don't need to read the room, nothing is gonna happen to them anyway. Also, the public just voted their mascot into the White House for 4 years despite 34 convictions, so they are truly invincible and they know.

[–] AshMan85@lemmy.world 35 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Ha, 4 years, yeah right. He is going to refuse to leave office

[–] Norin@lemmy.world 39 points 1 week ago (3 children)

If he lives that long.

Despite all the shitty AI pictures of him with abs, the guy is still old as fuck and in terrible health.

Did they seriously not give the snitch the bounty? Can anyone provide official news story on this?

[–] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 72 points 1 week ago

Iirc they never actually pay the reward in almost every reward poster for one reason or another.

[–] unphazed@lemmy.world 39 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Conviction is required, and the informant needs formal recognition by the FBI as a recognized informant first. Karen just called 911, forfeiting the reward.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 28 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Lol of course there's stupid hoops like that.

So anybody who is out and about and sees a fugitive with a publicized reward should know...don't call 911. Call John Walsh, or pound sand.

Probably gotta call a specific extension that's only staffed from 10am to 2:30pm with a 2 hour lunch from 11:15 to 1:15 on the first and third weeks of the month and 12:15 to 2:15 on the other weeks.

Anyone have a citation about the rat not getting the money? People keep saying that, but I haven't seen a single article posted about it.

is there news source for "fuck right off about that reward, bud"?

[–] callouscomic@lemm.ee 59 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

It's an easy find. Nobody is literally saying fuck right off, but it's not a stretch to think this shithole society would screw the person over.

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 125 points 1 week ago (3 children)

NYPD Crime Stoppers Rules: The NYPD part of the reward is given out through Crime Stoppers. To claim this part, people must have a unique reference number provided when they submit a tip through Crime Stoppers. Unfortunately, because the employee called 911 instead of using the Crime Stoppers hotline, they might not be eligible for this part of the reward.

What a fucking joke. Hope everyone learns the lesson here.

Mustn't let the poors get a foothold, they may improve their situation.

Let this be a lesson to any other proles who think Big Brother is somehow on your side. They are not.

They will do and say anything they can to ensure they get what they want, and the rest of us lose. The system is not broken; it’s working as it was designed.

Next time keep your head down and your mouth shut.

Wait where is is that the compensation will not be provided? This was the first time I heard this

[–] Mariemarion@lemm.ee 109 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

He didn't tip off the right agency. AND the reward depends on a conviction, not an arrest. AND he gets a proportion of the reward depending on how instrumental his info was in the case being solved.
(AND the poor are just tools to those in power.)

Edit: or so I gathered.

[–] DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 52 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Wooooow so because be called 911 instead of the feds he gets nothing..

... And of course they already said hours before the call they were "closing in" (they weren't)

Don't forget: McD's also took down all the negative "overrun by rats" reviews for that location, and drumroll nothing happens...
