MODERATORS
Nobody here has claimed that, don't put words in their mouths.
Thats cool. You're wrong, though.
Nope, they're pointing out that it's infinitely reproducible and thus making a copy doesn't deprive someone of their copy.
And then use that as justification to steal it. What a fun circle we just went in.
Not what's happening, as has been said. Legally, not just semantically
I'm saying stealing and piracy are equivalent. Different words for the same thing. It does make sense pirates don't want to be associated with the thieves, but as someone who has been around both groups, they are exactly the same thing.
Its the same as me going on farms and stealing fruit from their trees and calling it fruit sharing instead of theft. You can call it whatever you want, its still stealing when it comes to morals.
Say it all you want, it's not true
Nope, not the same thing at all
Only to someone as dumb as you
Nope, that's theft. You've deprived someone of their fruit. You having that fruit means they do not. Do you see the clear and obvious difference here?
Only if you're an idiot. Again, nobody's been deprived of something they'd otherwise have
I'm an idiot who doesnt want art to become worthless and cease to be made. But go ahead and steal from the people who make the thing you enjoy so much, why not. Its actually the moral thing to do right? Not stealing at all.
Hey, finally something we can agree on!
I guarantee you it's not the pirates that will do that
Not stealing, it's very simple, I can't believe you haven't figured that out yet
That poor strawman you built sure is taking a beating, damn
It literally isn't, you've just shoved your head so far up your ass you refuse to understand the basics that even the law disagrees with your take
Then you wanna pretend like the reason I keep pointing that out is some morality issue when I don't give a fuck about the morality of it at all
Well thats certainly a position, fuck morality and all.
