Piracy, in today’s context of unauthorized sharing of digital content, is wrongly condemned as immoral theft. However, it is not piracy itself that is immoral. Rather, it is the greed-driven laws and practices that censor knowledge and creative works to maximize profits. At its core, piracy is about sharing information and creative works with others, which should be seen as a moral good. 🤑

Yeah, wow, is this sub satire? These ridiculously superficial arguments shouldn’t convince anyone past a teenager who is stoned out of their mind.

It’s like communisn had sex with piracy and a bunch of people with messiah complex were born.

I want my good ol’ piracy back, in which we all knew we were criminals downloading shit because we didn’t want to pay, I could use that money to buy a burger or something.

You’re just mad with that fact that other people might have different reasons to pirate content other than just being a cheapskate lol

Some people also believe the earth is flat, which is at a similar level of objective thinking.

IMO it’s healthier for people to be honest with themselves and embrace the morally grey vs theories that apply only in a vacuum where their actions have zero consequence or chance of negatively affecting someone else.
