You are horrified at our intending to do away with private property. But in your existing society, private property is already done away with for nine-tenths of the population; its existence for the few is solely due to its non-existence in the hands of those nine-tenths. You reproach us, therefore, with intending to do away with a form of property, the necessary condition for whose existence is the non-existence of any property for the immense majority of society.

Essential reading that one. Pretty much all of his.
A real gem is one people hardly ever talk about or got covered: his book on Eric Garner called “A Killing On Bay Street.” It’s the kind of book that he didn’t have to do. But the backstory of his life and environment and the mentality of cops and their agenda, all leading up to that horrific fateful day, bears a hearing.
I do consider that capitalism, that's why I'm confused by what you think the tweet is saying lol
