Banksy told his followers to shoplift from the Regent Street Guess store in London after it displayed a collection that used his artwork without permission.

Excerpt:

Banksy isn’t happy with Guess’ latest collaboration.

The legendary anonymous graffiti artist had a directive for his followers on Friday, encouraging them—possibly tongue in cheek, possibly not—to visit the Regent Street Guess store in London and steal the brand’s new collection that features his artwork.

“Attention all shoplifters. Please go to Guess on Regents Street. They’ve helped themselves to my artwork without asking, how can it be wrong for you to do the same to their clothes?”

    This community looks like it’s just about stealing what you want, while using the plight of the poor as an excuse to steal nail polish.

    I think you are disingenuous here. You are using arguments and motivations from different people and just mix them together because they where posted in the same online space.

    My opinion as the mod and the one that started the community does not represent everyone participating here.
