I think I made a post about Luffy being a true pirate, but I can't find it, so I am making a part 2 of it,
I think Luffy is a real pirate because being a pirate is not about doing evil or stealing or specifically breaking a state or all states' laws but about being free and doing what you want to do and that's what he does so he is a true pirate,
This was said in part 1 of this post, but I would like to ask you something else about this, if Luffy is not a true pirate because he doesn't live as a thief and harm innocents, is this pirate also not a true pirate?

"Libertatia (also known as Libertalia) was a purported pirate colony founded in the late 17th century in Madagascar under the leadership of Captain James Misson (last name occasionally spelled "Mission", first name occasionally given as "Olivier"). The main source for Libertatia is Volume 2 of A General History of the Pyrates, a 1724 book which describes Captain Misson and Libertatia. Little to no corroborating evidence for Libertatia beyond this account has been found, however. Whether Libertatia was real but somehow "lost" to history, a pirate legend that the author recorded based on interviews with sailors, or a concocted work of utopian fiction by the author from the start is contested.
Libertalia was a legendary free colony founded by pirates led by Captain Misson,[1] although most historians have expressed doubts over its existence outside of literature. Libertalia got its name from the Latin word liberi which means "free". Misson's idea was to have his society be one in which people of all colours, creeds, and beliefs were to be free of any scrutiny. He wanted to give the people of Libertalia their own demonym, not one of a past country of origin.[2] Historian and activist Marcus Rediker describes the pirates as follows:
These pirates who settled in Libertalia would be "vigilant Guardians of the People's Rights and Liberties"; they would stand as "Barriers against the Rich and Powerful" of their day. By waging war on behalf of "the Oppressed" against the "Oppressors," they would see that "Justice was equally distributed."[3]
The pirates were against the authoritarian institutions of their day, including monarchies, slavery, institutional religion, and the abuses associated with wealth. Like some historically documented pirates, they practiced direct democracy, where the people as a whole held the authority to make laws and rules, and also used systems of councils composed of delegates who were supposed to think of themselves as "comrades" of the general population, not rulers. They created a new language for their colony and operated a socialist economy.[4]
The pirate utopia's motto was "for God and liberty," and its flag was white,[5] in contrast to a Jolly Roger. ",
