You're not a Marxist if you steal a small creator's work LOL. Marx said we should own our labor + reap its rewards directly, and that being too far removed from production of goods is a tool of disconnection.
Stealing books = stealing labor. You are closer to the capitalists you claim to hate.

Selba is always thinking about her mother. She was raised as an only child with no other parents in the house; they are extremely close.
Valerie always covers her neck, either with armor, a turtleneck, or a scarf. It's subtle, but when the reason is revealed, I'm hoping people go "WAIT A MINUTE"

Huge thread from Tyche Books, a Canadian publisher. Her authors are every day folks, with bills and rent and the physical requirement to eat every day.
Stealing the books she publishes is not a progressive act. It's not activism. It's not punk.
It's just stealing from people trying to live.

Some of my authors are on disability. Some struggle to pay monthly bills. Some are retired & on limited income. Some were laid off in the past couple years & have yet to find new work. Some would love to quit the day job & write full time, but don't earn enough from royalties to do that.
