Property is Theft Misunderstanding

This is the home of all topics from the old forum. ontic-philosophy.com was the original incarnation of this site back in 2017/18 which was ran on a myBB platform. A Tree Stump (formely Ontical) saved a backup of the site before taking it down. In 2025 the forum was ressurected into a Buddypress/phpBB site on indieagora.com and then into this new Atrium custom build platform on indieagora.com. Feel free to add to the discussions and to ressurect old posts. You can also add new topics if you like.

Property is Theft Misunderstanding

Post by Socrates »

Those who don't understand 'property is theft'.

I have seen a massive amount of people misinterpreting this observation by Kropotkin/Marx (probably because of those names being anchored trigger words these days.)

Instead of understanding the original appropriation through the convention of property and enclosure as theft, they stick to the 'the rich people I unconsciously kiss the posteria of bought it!'

Or instead of grasping how a bust out works, through debt, austerity and general corruption to evict tenants so thier homes can be 'flipped for a profit', these idiots blame the poor and immigrants.
