They’re not totally wrong though. A huge share of the goods the Caribbean pirates “stole” didn’t belong to their “victims” anyway. In fact, most of it had previously been stolen from the native Americans who had been conquered and killed or extorted from slaves on the plantations. Stealing from a robber isn’t stealing imho.
Another, more modern example are the pirates of Somalia, who originally were fishermen. Only when foreign ships came into their waters to steal their fish and dispose toxic waste, they began to arm themselves to “steal” their own goods back.
If you steal my food and poison my soil until my family is starving, you shouldn’t be surprised when I come back at you. And don’t expect me to steal the fish back, that you’ve already eaten. Of cause I’ll take whatever I can get hold of.
It weren’t primarily neighbour countries, it were especially European and Chinese vessels that were doing that shit.

Disney on the other hand…
Explain to me how overfishing and dumping by neighbour countries somehow justifies taking hostage a ship transporting goods from China to Europe?

Okay you go there and do better then, smart guy.
Potatoes
Others take my means of getting food.
I take shit and food from others.
Don’t care about justification. That’s just what they do.
Try to live and probably since no-one really stops them continue to do so.
You could provide alternative ways to earn money if you want to.
