        looting will not be supported by the majority

          Oligarchy is not supported by the majority. Yet it exists nonetheless

            oligarchy is supported by the rich and powerful which is how it exists against the majority; I doubt you’re suggesting looting is a feasible option for the same reasons…

              The point is that majority support is unnecessary for a thing to exist. In fact, it increasingly appears to be an irrelevant metric in general

                yes, I agree entirely- but I’m not sure what further point you are making or how it is relevant

                  Looting may be warranted or unwarranted. But, because majority support is not relevant, we shouldn’t evaluate the propriety of looting based on this metric
