Private property is theft? That statement hurt my brain.

I disagree as a moderate leftist, but more extreme leftists would say that because the cost of labour under a capitalist system is disproportionately small to the wages of the worker. It is only through that divide that the mega-rich are able to accrue immense material wealth. To a lover of Marx, "private property" insidiously infects society by tauntingly allowing the lower income household to feel they've bootstrapped and that they're able to tread water as they have worked hard to earn their own slice of private equity and therefore should not join in the movement to seize the means of production because they have something to lose, despite the fact their grandkids have no chance of catching up to the inter-generational wealth the 1% probably should lose.
