>When no one steals, it’s easy to be a thief. If somebody is stealing from you, then you either put a bigger lock, or you figure out why so many people hate you so much. That’s why only thief will go to great lengths to educate people to not steal to have a whole territory open only to him.
Ah, so thats why I was taught not to steal by my school teachers, parents and other mentors. Its because they were all thieves, just trying to clear their territory of competition. I'd better go buy some locks from the lock shop...
- oleganza 13y agoTeaching that "if you steal, people won't like it" is not a commandment with a death sentence attached to it. It's just teaching how things work in society. But making a commandment or a law, and forcing people to obey it, in most cases is just a shield for violating this very principle by someone else.
