Your own definition of violence includes damages to property. And besides, damaging someone’s personal property is effectively the same thing as damaging their person. Because property takes time out of a persons life to earn, therefore depriving someone of their property is almost exactly the same thing as depriving them of their life / health.

This is one of the most absurd things I've ever heard. Cars are insured, and even if they weren't... this is still absurd. I can't even put into words how absurd it is. So if someone burns your house, it's the same as getting your feet amputated? Or what exactly is your scale? Losing the phone the same as going bald?

Having a house burn down is comparable to 25-75 years(most people get a mortgage) of labor toil loss, which is enough to push most humans to the point of debilitation, or at least they can only do that amount of work once or twice per lifespan. It’s hard to quantify suffering but yes I’d agree the physical suffering toll on their body and mental facilities required to work that long period of time does seem somewhat roughly comparable to the acute loss of a major limb.

Which is why most people (at least in the United States) have fire insurance.

You're completely ignoring insurance.

That’s lovely. So, where is your evidence that Democratic politicians are cheering on the murder of Cybertruck owners? That was the claim you made in your flagged post. Time to put up or shut-up.
