If I go into such cultures and take a bunch of shit from their homes, do you really think they’re not gonna be like wtf? Won’t recognize that I took stuff that wasn’t mine to take?
Secondly the cultures that I think your referring to, believe that certain things like water and land are sacred, to be shared among them, not everything. Just because some cultures have communal beliefs about certain things, doesn’t mean that they don’t understand the concept of stealing.
And lastly you believe stealing is objectively wrong. So are these cultures doing something objectively wrong which they don’t recognize?
