Iād still believe property should be a thing and that people have the right to own objects. What now.

I guess thereās a difference between believing a law is wrong and believing the concept of law is wrong?

can probably block it out with a marker pen (or change it to say fuck bikes)
Yes but youāve also said that property shouldnāt exist, in this very thread. So the point stands.
Is that a floor or a wall?
the concept of private property rights. Obviously people should be able to have a home and live in it free from fear of burglary etc.
I donāt know (itās not my photo, I stole it)

how do we prevent an individual from accumulating all of the resources without the concept of law or property or those who are incentivised to enforce societyās norms?

Yeah thatās so obvious based off of what you were saying before. What about shops run by one person? By two people? If itās a successful shop or a struggling one?

Iām just taking a pretty standard marxist position here, this isnāt my personal manifesto or anything.
Itās not even that the concept of law is called into question, just that itās not fit for purpose always and should be recognised in those instances.
donāt think iāve ever owned a single pine nut, stolen or otherwise

et tu niki?
is there an argument for changing a law within a current legal framework?
Red card offence and 6 months ban, more like
Privilege doesnāt just extend to how much money you have at the end of the month. Youāre an (?upper?) middle class white male for whom, as songs_about_ducking says, the consequences of being caught are a lot lower than many other people, especially those who have to shoplift through necessity. Shoplifting when you donāt need to drives up security and theft-prevention measures which makes it more likely that those who do need to steal to survive will be caught, and makes the sanctions more severe.
If youāre going to try to make the āpassing onā argument, try not to use facetious examples like calling helplines, not being speedy through the tills and buying loss leaders (seriously, theyāre utter trash arguments).
If your point is so much more complex and nuanced, why have you been so utterly incapable of making it in this thread so far? It seems to be easier to claim that you were trolling and that you shit yourself on purpose rather than have to actually progress beyond trite sloganeering?

I stole some sweets when I was 10. I felt terrible and guilty for ages.
