To be fair, you pirates always look like starving entitled whiny bastards. You want everything free in life and feel like you have the right and duty to take it from others. You can't pay even $5 for a fucking game? Lmao you obviously can but choose to be a parasite and not to.
And before you come here telling me that it's not stealing and these aren't physical items, what I mean is that you're actively hurting honest businesses and small artist. You're taking thier products, making exact copies of it and then distributing them freely. You're not competing economically making your own product, you're just leeching off from someone else's hard work and then killing any opportunity they could have of profiting from it.
Y all act like selling is something bad, but I have news for you: That's how the world works! People need to buy food, pay rent and pay bills, and they're not doing it by just making things free
And you'd do the same, if you could.
Your boss steals every day from you. Corporations steal every day from us. Why are we supposed to act like docile sheep?
What do they steal? They pay me my fair share, people who agree to do jobs underpaid is because they're fucking stupid and don't know to take good gigs. Either that or the my get a fair pay but they just are greedy and want more without doing any more work
If you really think, you get a fair share, you're naive or trolling.
Every profit your company pays to shareholders is fruit of your labor stolen from you. And if you can't see that, you're exactly the kind of docile worker they want.
BTW: it's typical for types like you to look down upon the lower class as stupid and lazy. That's a way for you to feel empowered in the face of the inherent unfairness of the system. And you can ignore, that you're being fucked just like the others. You just get a cushion for your elbows, so it's slightly more comfortable.
Every profit my company pays to shareholders is part of my labor, that's how it works, I her a cut to work on a bigger entity than me, where I can profit form labor me alone couldn't and we both get our part.
The system isn't fair, if I work I get money. Lower class exist because they're not as prepared or educated as the rest or because they don't want to work. So I don't know what problems are you talking about
We're living in a world that's actively killing the planet and lets literally millions of people die of starvation in the name of profit and your answer is "guess they weren't educated enough"...
You are the problem. Your blindness, lack of empathy, lack of education or simply stupidity, I don't know. But you are the problem.
