Most people who do small crime like this do so because of the material pressure capitalism puts on them. The actual evil criminals are the few privileged ultra rich people who steal unbelievable amounts from the public despite already having way more than enough, like Trump, Bezos and Musk for example. Those are the real criminals.

When my parents got their car stolen, the robber used it for a joy ride and proceeded to crash it. I don't disagree that there are other places to put blame, but car theft I don't think is as financially motivated as something like stealing food or catalytic converters.

I somehow came across wrong I guess. I in fact do very much condemn non rich people stealing from other non rich people. Instead they should unite and fight the power.

I don't believe Trump is rich. The enormous moron he is, he likely squandered all his inherited wealth. Now he is just lying because he wants to keep the rich man status to impress his cult.

Stealing a car is grand theft, so not really a small crime.

Seems like people don't get your joke :D I liked it

In my book stealing a car is a small crime. We are not talking about stealing the horse of someone who's life depends on it in the old west but just a piece of Detroit trash. So no matter how a car fetishistic law system sees it, I still consider it a small crime.

Pure ignorance. For some people having their car stolen is EXACTLY what you're describing.

if someone stole my car and it was never found not only would i have to say goodbye to my savings i would also be sad because i love my car

M8 this is grand theft and while i agree in that fuck ultra rich people, this has nothing to do with that, the thief returned the child so that he wouldnt be hunted down for child kidnapping and car stealing is probably the thiefs lifestyle rather than a temporary hustle forced by rampant capitalism.
