  • Piracy from the big guy who’s exploiting little guys to make and sell products is fair.

    Pirating things off the little guy, who’s barely making a living is how the little guys stop making content on their own, and will instead opt to work for the big guy who can guarantee a livelihood, no matter how small. If you think you as a society isn’t contributing to it then just look around.

    And It is only getting worse. While you can fantasize about it, indie-anything who get lucky are exceedingly rare for a reason. But you won’t stop removed about how everything from the Big Bad has gone to shit. It couldn’t totally be because everyone thinks they’re entitled to others hard work, because they paid for “the internet”.

    But as always, entitled pricks are how we end up on ever more convulsive state of the world, no matter which side you’re on. So carry on, ig.

    Religions and all their influence could force a lot of heavily studied subject to be skewed for their benefit. Hell, there were studies that were treated as standard making sugar and alcohol heavily beneficial for human beings. And we’re talking about a person.
