“I’m going to the supermarket to steal food so I can save up for a new iphone. I could just steal the iPhone, but that could be unethical, so I’ll steal the food instead cause that is ALWAYS ethical.”
This is such a silly discussion…

Sure let’s not state the obvious because underisk can’t see nuance it will think it justifies letting people starve.
When you phrase it like that, it’s lik stealing is the only way to feed your family. If that is the case, sure stealing is obviously justified. If there are other options to feed you family, it becomes a more complicated dilemma.
It probably depends on what these other options are, who you’re stealing from, etc.

If it doesn’t justify that, than it’s not an “out for misanthropes”.
