BigtiddygothgranyIf buying isn’t ownership then pirating isn’t stealing
nullLicensing isn’t ownership, and pirating isn’t stealing, it’s copyright infringement.
It is stealing. I don’t understand the mental gymnastics here. You’re stealing income from whoever created the content if you’re not paying them for your ability to watch it.
It is not stealing. The mental gymnastics are when you try to claim that it is.
You’re stealing income from whoever created the content if you’re not paying them for your ability to watch it.
It’s just as much “stealing” as me not watching it at all.
I’m infringing on their copyright, absolutely, but I’m not taking anything away from them that they could otherwise profit from.
No it’s not. If you don’t pay for it, you don’t watch it. If they’re not entitled to your money, then you’re not entitled to the product of their time, effort, and labor.
If i could just teleport into your house so i could liberate your keyboard, i would. Because your take is so collosally stupid that it actually angers me that you have it.
Like real, palpable rage that this insipid argument still exists in this world, after all this time.
Ahh yes… the tried and true ad-hominem. No actual argument against the point, just childish name-calling and insults. Grow the fuck up.
An ad hominem would be if i avoided your point and instead attacked you as a person. I attacked the point itself as frivolous and years-debunked. Please… Listen… Your keyboard is suffering under the weight of false premise. Free it, please
You did not address the point at all. Nothing has been debunked. It cannot be debunked because it’s true - you are stealing something someone created, which they made in order to get paid and make a living, because you are ingesting it and not paying them.
Stop being dishonest.
Provide to me a copy/paste definition of “false premise” so i know you know more fallacies than “strawman” and “ad hominem”. If i feel you learned something today ill call our little tete a tete a win.
I don’t need to provide you with shit. Look at you, expecting to get someone else’s effort and time for free again. Thanks for proving you’re dishonest.
Youre getting angry now i think. I want you to read about false premise, and i (selfishly) want proof that you have bettered yourself. If you don’t want to (and frankly, i don’t blame you) then would you at least pinky swear you’ll read it later?
(Spoiler: ‘false premises’ don’t necessarily invalidate an argument, just make the ground is on shakier. ) There’s a lot to read, and a lot to learn. Here, i’ll link it. It’s real. Go check it out.
Believe it or not, reading thru the definition will make you better at defending your points in the future. Youre gonna need it if youre going with this stance.
I’m not angry. I haven’t even thought about what you said before, even after you just mentioned it.
I’m not doing anything you ask me to because I know what a false premise is, I know what ad hominem is, and I know what a straw man is. You haven’t actually provided any kind of argument against what I said so I know you’re not being honest. Since you’re not willing to be honest, there is no point in continuing discussion with you.
I’m not angry. I haven’t even thought about what you said before, even after you just mentioned it.
This might be the finest, most delicious dessert ive ever eaten
Again, I don’t care. You’re still starving.
M0oP0oAgain, I don’t care. You’re still starving.
Ha, This was a lot of keystrokes to not care. And yes, this is delicious dessert after my morning coffee.
Not really. I’m a fast typer. Still don’t care.

Not sure what is funnier, that you think this is a counterpoint or that you care that people think you don’t care about a topic you have made the greatest amount of comments in.
I don’t care what’s funnier. I’m just glad you’re having a laugh in an otherwise dreary life that you lead.
PS. There’s an actual ad-hominem.
This fucker is a troll, quit feeding him Tom
I am not a troll. I am a creator that thinks your mental gymnastics attempting to justify theft is bullshit.
K troll
Oh no! You got me! 🤣
Saying your argument is stupid isn’t attacking you, dude.
That’s not what ad-hominem is, “dude”. It’s still a superficial attack rather than an attack of the argument if there’s no substance to it to actually dispute the argument.
ad-hominem (adj.): (of an argument or reaction) directed against a person rather than the position they are maintaining.
Why did I have to look this up for you?
Think of it this way, saying your argument is stupid is similar to saying your argument is not valid, not sound, etc. Your response should be “why is it stupid?” or what’s wrong with my way of thinking?", not “stop attacking me, I’m under attack!” At the very least, don’t misappropriate a logical fallacy that doesn’t apply.
He clearly directed the attack at me since he wants to come into my house and smash my keyboard or whatever the fuck he said.
The point is that he didn’t provide any counter to the argument. He’s done nothing to address the actual argument and has simply made an attack. I don’t need to argue the semantics of it unless they care to actually address the points I’m making.
Introducing pedantry to the mix isn’t useful or helpful.
I agree.
You should also take your own advice and address the actual argument and points made.
I did and I have. Several times.
True, if you count each and every time you stopped typing…
