3 Popeyes sandwiches? That is gnarly, and I don’t mean that in a judgy way. If I could stuff 3 of those sammies down, I prob would 😅

Ok there buddy. There is no ‘high horse’ here. Piracy is piracy. People need to quit with their bullshit justifications. Just own up to it. I do. The fuck are you on about Christianity? There is literally no connection to religion/beliefs here.

People can’t afford to pay for it? Cool. It’s still piracy. One is still depriving the creator/studio/publisher/whatever of a sale.

But I can’t afford it! Therefore I deserve to have it for free!

Ridiculous.

Damn, I had not considered that. I should have known that this was yet another ploy to keep fascism in power. I mean, after the Nazi salute, I should have kept that in mind when examining why he does what he does.

I’m not sure I understand where you are going with that. Performative? Exhausting? The hell are you trying to say?

Only the wealthy can afford art? Music? Movies? Graphic Novels? Video Games?

Are you being obtuse?

Are you suggesting that all art should be free?

I too dream of living in a post-capitalist world. But I’d bet dollars to donuts that people will pirate things regardless of the cost. They don’t want to pay anything for content.

My lord the amount of “I have a REAL job” in here is too damn high. I work 8 hours a night, 40+ hours a week, in an automotive plant. My job can be very stressful, and physically demanding. So what?

I don’t sit here and whine about people that stare at their screens (IT, developers, etc) all day. Are they really doing any work? After all, they are not performing physical labor.

How is it that different for people who create content? I’d argue that they do more work, as they have to set up, film, edit and market their work.

See how silly this sounds? A job is a job. Unless you own your own business, you are making money for someone else.

Lmao nice
