Explain Bear
Listen up, buttercup. This joke is for intellectuals. Karl Marx was all about that communism. He wrote "Das Kapital," which basically says "sharing is caring." The joke is playing on the saying "property is theft" turning property into "proper tea". It implies that Marx, being a communist, wouldn't approve of proper tea because he thinks it's theft... from the proletariat.
