How do you know that the “supermarkets” referenced in OP were not locally owned? This is 1973 in Italy, we’re not talking about Wal-Mart.
What exactly would prevent these nutjobs from doing the same thing to locally owned stores? Do you think they were being particularly selective in their grandstanding tactics?
I don’t want grocery chains to stay in business. I want them to go bankrupt and make way for locally owned grocers.

That’s the thing. Right now, I believe we are talking about Walmart.
It was in milan though, so it definitely could have been large chains
That’s an awful lot of assumptions from someone who clearly hasn’t read anything about the events…
Edit: and because I got curious, here’s some reading on the topic. I’ve not found much on the internet about it, but I found this: https://libcom.org/article/take-over-city-community-struggle-italy-lotta-continua
You’re right, the person I responded to did make a lot of assumptions.
You think you’re cute or clever, rest assured you’re the only one that does.
I don’t think the point of this comic is to judge the past. I think it’s to plan for the future. I want to go proletariat shopping at Walmart.
I would grab so many PS5’s with which to feed my hungry children
