"All property is theft"

[the chazz]

Why is this line in the game? Does that mean it's ok for me to torrent this

You will Unininstall it if you do since it doesn't run properly and the sensitivity is broken.

Lol runs properly for me and you can adjust mouse sensitivity fine. But mouse accel seems to be enabled by default

And the guy says "what would it be?" or something like that in Japanese, "dou darou na?". Translators infiltrating their ideologies in games.

In Japanese is that conversation goes like:
Akito: 盗んだのか?
KK: さあ、どうだろうな..
which means like:
"Did you steal it?"
"Hmm, how was it actually...?"

[Whatever]

Yeah I noticed it too. It's a deliberate mistranslation. Now I wonder, what might motivate someone to do something like this?

Its extra weird for a cop to say it too. It makes it look like cops in Japan break laws then make up excuses to justify them. So while they wanted to be woke all they did was make KK a bad person who says stuff he doesnt believe in order to justify his criminal activity.

Does GTA make it ok for you to steal cars?

Well, no, see, because you don't technically own the game, you've just paid for permission to USE the game.
That's what the sticker price is for.
That's why you aren't allowed to copy it, or change it.
It isn't yours.

I guess that means it isn't THEIRS either, so ... yea ... actually ... you go right ahead.

Does anyone in GTA say that all property is theft?

The logic doesn't hold. In GW:T, you have a character explicitly tell you that property is theft. In GTA, you just happen to be able to steal cars. It's not a good analogy.

Sure it is. Both are using a video game to justify real life action. Both are foolish.

Also I'm 99.9% certain the line in this game is sarcastic. Nothing else about the character KK ever references any kind of political ideology. It's literally a weird, one off line that doesn't mean anything. it's confusing tbh, because it's never mentioned again and nothing else in the game is related.
