Yes, no matter what the reason is, no one NEEEDS to be a pirate.
You don't NEED to steal that boat, just be boatless.
Just accept who you are.
You hijacked a boat, you attacked the crew to take their stuff, you wanted that stuff and you don't "need" that stuff and you took it cause you wanted it. You don't need to do that because there are other ways to make a living but you choose to be a pirate.
Because you wanted free stuff.
Live your life, be a pirate if you want, but don't rationalise it like you're not a murderous piece of shit out to take other people's stuff.
