I'm not sure how you came to that interpretation.

Theft is theft, I never implied it wasn't.
And I never said it could be perfectly justified. I said each situation was nuanced and that there is no hard right/wrong.

That doesn't mean the theft never happened, just that some crimes are easier to forgive.

    Look, as long as we both agree that theft is, by definition, a crime, which it is, then we're on the same page.

    My point was that the way some people are talking makes it sound as though theft sometimes isn't a crime or isn't morally reprehensible.

    I fully agree that wrongdoing exists on a spectrum and that different offenses carry different moral weight.

    That has never been the point of contention.
