        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

          Different words for the same thing

          Nope, not the same thing at all

          they are exactly the same thing

          Only to someone as dumb as you

          Its the same as me going on farms and stealing fruit from their trees and calling it fruit sharing instead of theft

          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?

          its still stealing when it comes to morals

          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!

              doesnt want art to become worthless and cease to be made

              I guarantee you it’s not the pirates that will do that

              But go ahead and steal

              Not stealing, it’s very simple, I can’t believe you haven’t figured that out yet

              Its actually the moral thing to do right?

              That poor strawman you built sure is taking a beating, damn

              Not stealing at all

              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
