LW turned into a shit show pretty fast...
What's LW?
Abbreviation for Lemmy.World
LW?
soulless profit-extracting corporations do not need you to simp for them
also quit using so many alts dude, take the hint when you get banned
Hahahaha absolute gold!
Man, you are such a tool
my dude all your other alts of identical names spend their entire time spamming anti-lgtbq hate
nobody wants to be part of your communities. it should be zero surprise you're a reddit moderator too, perhaps you should stay over there.
I'm gonna pirate some stuff I don't even want just for you baby.
Haahhaa . I had a bad day at work and reading your comments make me forget that shitty work . thanks

I'm angry because believers in intellectual properties are still breathing, and therefore stealing my oxygen
I love IP, they can protect my business identity and other valuable things in the world. Please don't blame IP, they don't need our oxygen. Blame the whiny toolbag.
So, you support the corporations charging abusive prices and fees to post record profits every quarter?... I'm not going to say piracy is right, ethical or should be legal, but I get it.
When we talk about abusive corporation being unethical, maybe a part of us should see the opposite as ethical too?
And piracy is not even a opposite backlash, it's a way around that helps out a lot of people in different scenarios. I used to pirate games as a kid because I didn't have any money and now I'm one of those who has youtube premium for convinience.
And there are hell of a lot more positive use cases like sharing censored data and general p2p file sharing
Ok, but I will.
"Piracy is right, ethical, and should be legal."
Ok...
