I said "stealing to eat". Because the claim was "stealing is never moral and is just as bad no matter the amount".
You heard "point a weapon at a stranger and demand the contents of his pockets".
And, since this seems to be really confusing to a lot of people here for some reason, stealing tens/hundreds of millions of dollars from people is in fact unambiguously worse than mugging someone for their wallet. It's far more violent, and causes far more suffering.

The topic of the thread changed at some point; you seem to still be on the original topic, when the rest of us are talking about stealing food to survive.
