Spare me your fake condescension covering your utter lack of argument.

Stealing people's property is illegal. Prove otherwise.

If anything, recognizing and defending claims of ownership primarily benefits those who have hoarded under capitalism. It's much harder to accumulate wealth when you have to personally dedicate resources to defending all that you have. And so capitalists would be particularly interested in discouraging theft.

Capitalism is theft.

It's only illegal for you because you're not in the owner class.

No, stealing 101 puppies is not "legal" if you're rich. Fucking embarrassing.
