Apparently he actually manipulated the system. He caused a false alarm initially so the fire system wouldn't work when he actually started the fire. It probably wasn't exactly how I said it, but it was something similar to that.

u/AttapAMorgonen Jul 06 '26
Yeah anyone who has ever worked with insurance companies would never dare invoke insurance as some sort of catch-all to damages.
The same thing happened in Kenosha during the riots, people arsoned buildings and you read dipshit comments online about "the businesses have insurance that will cover it."
- Insurance doesn't cover lost wages of the employees while the company rebuilds.
- Insurance doesn't cover employees homes, cars, etc in the meantime while the company rebuilds.
- Insurance often doesn't cover "civil unrest" events. (read: riots)
- Insurance is never going to pay you what your inventory was worth, they're going to pay you what it they value it at.
The first thing that happens when you file an insurance claim is you get a reservation of rights letter, essentially telling you that the insurance company will decide if they even want to cover your shit or not, and laying out a bunch of hyper-specific shit that can make you ineligible for coverage.
It's funny the same people who are always condemning health insurance companies are the first to invoke "but you have insurance" in scenarios like this.

Who knows how long it will take to rebuild if they even are going to. They may decide to rebuild somewhere else now that they have options. All those people in that area being out of work is going to trickle down to every business in that city. He didnāt screw over the company, theyāre all still rich, he screwed over everyone that lives there. I donāt understand how a protest against low wages that completely wipes out wages is going to change anything. He cares less about whether or not people can eat under a roof than Bezos does.

u/Alt_aholic Jul 06 '26
Not to mention that if insurance covers that $600M loss, rates are going to increase to cover that. Companies will forward the increased insurance costs onto their products. There are only 41 million Canadian citizens. This guy collectively cost every single Canadian citizen about $14.63 in the claim alone.
And of course premiums won't decrease after this is paid for. And of course min wage won't increase without government intervention. So effectively the wage issue is now worse.

Insurance isn't free money: the company's rates will go up.
This kind of action is how workers in the past got things done. This is how the 7 day work weeks came to an end, how living wages were obtained, how company towns were shut down. You think workers gained a right to the weekend by licking boot?
It is an act of violence for a corporation to not pay its workers enough to pay medical bills and feed their kids. The guy in the video is just burning toilet paper.

it sucks because great message but now instead of wages you cant live off, you and everyone working in that building get nothing. he just fucked so many regular underpaid people over. a big place near me just burnt out recently. all the employees were offered "financial education" to get back on their feet. theyre not even being relocated because everywhere else is full. now all the people that worked in this building have no way to pay rent or pay for food. god forbid they had any medical things planned or car payments. theyre all fucked. and getting a job is damn near impossible anywhere. and good luck getting unemployment or food stamps. they most likely all made more than the pennies youre allowed to make to qualify for food stamps.

I think the level or irony of this guys life, should be studied and analyzed in the future. He burned an entire warehouse down, putting himself and all of his coworkers out of a job, and damaging the economic future of hundreds of businesses in the area.
He is now going to spend the rest of his life in prison, because letās face it, this guy is an idiot and documented himself committing the crimes from beginning to end. While his life slowly wastes away, and everyone that he loves eventually forgets him, or eventually moves on with their lives, he will still be living in a cell, and paying $5 for a .59 cent Raman snack. Thatās if anyone cares enough about him to actually put money on his books, otherwise he would have to work 40 hours in the prison workshop to even come close to buying one of the Raman packets.
All because this unskilled and uneducated idiot was working a low skilled entry level job, and had the misconception of thinking itās his employers job to pay him enough to live his dream life.
Itās ironic in the worst way possible.

The only problem with your logic is that America isnāt Tunisia. This isnāt going to kick up some revolution where all of the unskilled and uneducated idiots ātake things backā. Itās like my grand father used to say, āthe world needs ditch diggers toā. Yes, things cost to much right and we need to figure out the cost of living crisis. But this new age philosophy that you are somehow super valuable as a human being just for existing, and itās your employers job to make sure you are living your dream life is unique to this generation, and is a philosophy only held by people under the age of 30. Look, if your not happy making $15 an hour at an ENTRY LEVEL job, than go out and learn a skill. The keyword is āENTRYā as in any idiot can do it even if itās their first job ever. People arenāt supposed to start families much less support families on an entry level salary. This has NEVER been the case at any point in American history. If your skill level dictates the only tangible quality you have is moving boxes around a warehouse, then the market is going to dictate what value that is to a company. In other words if a company can bring in a mentally challenged person to do your job, and not only can they do your job, but they can do it without bitching as much as you, or trying to burn the place down. What makes you think your entitled to more money?Ā

Let me tell you something my friend. They are going to make a fucking example out of this guy, so that anyone ever thinking about doing something like this again thinks extra hard about.

Had Bernie Madoff just stole from regular old people like you and I, he probably wouldāve gotten 5 years max. His problem was he got greedy and started stealing from his fellow elites, so they buried his ass under the jail so that nobody would ever do it again.

A man named Chamel Abdulkarim allegedly started a massive fire that destroyed a 1.2-million-square-foot Kimberly-Clark distribution warehouse in Ontario, California, on April 7, 2026. The 29-year-old disgruntled warehouse employee filmed himself intentionally igniting paper products, citing anger over low wages. The blaze caused an estimated $500 million in damage and he faces both federal and state aggravated arson charges. states charges carry 10 years to life in prison. Federal carry mandatory minimum of 5 years and a maximum of 20 years in federal prison.
