In this case it doesn't, you're stealing luxury items that are playing a huge huge role in water consumption. It's like 91 liters of water per day per tree.

And an academic study focusing on global implications for water scarcity from the growth in avocado production says that that growing avocado requires “four times more water than the production of a kilo of oranges and ten times of that of a kilo of tomato”.

Now check up how much water is required for meat, and suddenly realise that you're maybe fighting the wrong battle here mate.

Whataboutism is a logical fallacy. One has nothing to do with the other.

Exactly avocados being bad for the environment doesnt have anything to do with having the right to steal them.
