Genesis of a Bad Thief and a Good Thief

Some of you might be wondering, why is it that most of your post are titled with movie titles. Like I told you before, I am a movie freak, especially Korean! I got this poetry inspired by the title ofba kdrama series "The Good Thief, The Bad Thief"

about the drama

Although, I am not movie reviewing here, like I said in my formal post hmhere. But I will like to let us know, what really inspired me in the drama series. "Bad thief, Good thief" is a Korean drama series, started when Korean old artifacts were stolen by the Japanese invaders through an insider. The movie trail to start attaching strings, in which I will not like to write here. due to low time factor. The drama is generally about a good thief, a sort of Robin Hood and a bad thief, a sort of political thief or better still a corporate thief.

and to the main business....

A thief, according to wiktionary is

One who has carried out a theft

Looking at that definition, we can see that there is no adjective of being a bad or a good, but some questions arises after watching the movie, is there really a difference in thieves, is there really a qualification in thieves, that we can say, one is bad or one is good, I think your opinion are welcome in the comment section.

Judging from another movie, Robinhood, an American movie, Robinhood serves as a good thief. With that we can now start our analysis of the categories each of them belong, either good or bad.

Personal analysis

The good thief

He will steal the rich and takes little or mostly nothing from it, and gives the poor. He doesn't, at most times, regret his actions, going alright the way taking the judgement on his own, a crime he committed either lonely or with someone little band of his own, in which the returns he get are mostly distributed to the poor.

His virtue in a sentence: Steal the rich, feed the poor.
Crime: Larceny
Inspiring phrase: The poor getting poorer, the rich getting richer.

And the bad thief

These are the corporate thief, the common thief, the political thief, I mean the known thief that we all see in the highway, the man using his or her mask for bad thing, or even the man without mask and his digesting people's hard earned money for his personal issues. He was seen as a righteous man the outside, but he is more than a serpent in the inside, the only skill he has, **is to steal people's tax, siphoning them and lying to them at the end of it all, saying we are working so hard to help the poor, get on their feet. They are the one that will organise a sort of scholarship and gives it all to his friend's children.

And the war

We have to declare war against the bad thieves, we have to let them know that, we understand how they are doing things and it doesn't fuckin freak us, we will get then, when we want, we doesn't even want their help, an help they will promise us and we get absolutely nothing in return, we should fire up and flare up in rage against that one man using his small brain, to siphon us of our hard-earned money.

With that, I'll start an hashtag against them, #OpBadThief
