Antiwork
For the abolition of work. Yes really, abolish work! Not "reform work" but the destruction of work as a separate field of human activity.
To save the world, we're going to have to stop working! — David Graeber
A strange delusion possesses the working classes of the nations where capitalist civilization holds its sway. ...the love of work... Instead of opposing this mental aberration, the priests, the economists, and the moralists have cast a sacred halo over work. — Paul Lafargue
In communist society, where nobody has one exclusive sphere of activity but each can become accomplished in any branch he wishes, society regulates the general production and thus makes it possible for me to do one thing today and another tomorrow, to hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticise after dinner, just as I have a mind, without ever becoming hunter, fisherman, herdsman or critic. — Karl Marx
In the glorification of 'work', in the unwearied talk of the 'blessing of work', I see the same covert idea as in the praise of useful impersonal actions: that of fear of everything individual. — Friedrich Nietzsche
If hard work were such a wonderful thing, surely the rich would have kept it all to themselves. — Lane Kirkland
The bottom line is simple: all of us deserve to make the most of our potential as we see fit, to be the masters of our own destinies. Being forced to sell these things away to survive is tragic and humiliating. We don’t have to live like this. ― CrimethInc

If you saw someone stealing food, no you didn’t.
Why limit it to just food?
Depends on where. Food, diapers, other necessities? I ain't see shit. Luxuries? Only if it's a local joint. Luxuries at a chain? I still ain't see shit. You could steal a 200 inch TV, a PS5, and jewelry from a department store and I didn't see anything at all.
Please don't steal from local joints. Those folks are just trying to make a living. But if you do, please keep it to what you need.
We don't get to choose the laws we follow without consequence, and the laws are clear here.
You really, really do.
Where I come from, there are only a handful of crimes people are obligated to report.
Someone stealing food? Ain't my business.
Someone getting beaten up? Yea, I'm doing something about it.
