    "X is theft" is a strange one, since stealing is a very common example of a thing that is morally ok in some circumstances, and the people making that argument on the left are usually pretty pro-theft.

      "Property is theft" was an argument by Proudhon against the institution of property itself which holds that each concept is only coherent in the presence of the other. Separated from that specifically anarchist critique, it's very easy to misrepresent.
