I can’t, can’t afford to go to college or watch films or read plays to become a better director, programmer, writer. Maybe I’m unemployed too :( fuck me, right?
Copyright infringement is absolutely the moral thing to do in quite a lot of cases. For example, for the preservation of cultural works. Corporations aren’t exactly spending their money on proper archives and the people to curate them. Quite the opposite! For example, if some or all of the lawsuits against sites like archive.org are successful then the result could be a mass erasure of cultural works on the scale of the burning of the Library of Alexandria.
Good. Piracy is illegal and immoral.
But I want to make sleazy companies suffer…
Become a film director or major video game developer and have your content ruthlessly stolen then.

Then write them and don’t steal. And everybody is financially suffering so don’t use that excuse.
Haha, I feel solace in knowing that we suffer together, pull yourself up by your flipflop straps, right?
Okay but be creative and don’t steal.
Ok, I’ll go to chatgpt then
ChatGPT is AI and AI is theft.

when the capitalists expropriate the profits over creative works: cool, good
when some random person downloads it: how dare you

But archiving has nothing to do with copyright.
Yes it absolutely does.
No.
I wish the courts feel the same way
This is such an insane thing to say, I feel like you can’t possibly understand what those words mean.

Me playing a small violin very emotionally at the thought that a media mogul won’t be able to afford his 750th super yacht because of piracy 😢
It’s like stealing a car.
