"Thieves" as a fantasy concept has been preachy since at least the 20th century retellings of Robin Hood, where suddenly stealing was cool and heroic and awesome as long as you labelled them something vaguely evil like "the rich." Doesn't need to be about taxes or abusive royal powers, just "the rich bad, the poor good."

Which is directly how you create movements like the white women shoplifters who got started on tumblr, who think they are equal to him because they stole some makeup and tampons. And then circles back to shit like this, where its not "stealing" if it meets their made up criteria but they are still Badass Thieves anyway.

Tumblr white woman stealing movement?

Tumblr had an entire subculture of basic white girls who shoplifted, with entire lexicons, tutorials and culture about themselves. It was shockingly large for being an open criminal element, likely only allowed because of how little anyone took it seriously being a mix of women, who get off on all crimes, and them stealing mostly vanity goods.

Well yeah, but that's just nogs being nogs. They don't have enough higher thought process to create an entire ideology system to justify stealing, they just know they want it and thereby they should have it.

They won't steal books or 9V batteries though.

Back during Occupy Wall Street, the White trust fund kids camping out on a national bank's property told me with complete sincerity to go shoplift from the local grocery stores. I'm not even exaggerating. That was their platform—go steal from the grocery store. I know it's common now to associate shoplifting with viral videos of brown people swarming stores, but rich White Communists were very much encouraging this behavior for years.
