Profit Is Theft IS WRONG: The Real Problem Is THIS..

The slogan "Profit Is Theft" is wrong because it undermines an objective critique of capitalism. It allows us to be "destroyed" by libertarians and Ben Shapiro wannabes, who latch on to the word "theft" when considering the relation between employees and employers. So let's not fall for this trap and reframe the conversation around the serious and indisputable fact that profit comes from EXPLOITATION. This is how capitalism makes its profits. And a system based on exploitation, with the profit motive as its driving force, WILL ONLY lead to trouble!

I remember an argument between Pierre-Joseph Proudhon and Marx
Marx thought that Property who's not theft because property is a legal
and Theft is only a from of crime

You should look up the SPGB, I believe they have synthesised Marxism with anarchism perfectly.
