I saw that story from a distance but didn't really follow it. How did Biden negatively impact the workers striking against the railroads?

I didn't call anyone out, you responded to my original comment trying to explain your reasoning for pirating which is fine. I am pointing out that your reasoning is flawed and your desire to play games without paying is out of selfishness.

I'm not superior to anyone here. I pirate music, movies and games just like you do and it's as selfish as anyone else here who does it.

Except you can't portray breathing as selfish in any manner since it's a necessary bodily function unlike your desire to pirate which is completely optional. You feel entitled to play something you don't want to or can't pay for. It's selfish behavior.

Yea, pirating something just because you don't have the money for it is still selfish behavior. Comparing necessary bodily functions to pirating someone else's IP is a real leap in logic but if that's what helps you justify your selfish behavior then that's cool.

You pirating something because you don't want to miss out on it is inherently selfish. Just because you're not making as much money as you'd like doesn't change anything. And no, you can't frame breathing as selfish since it's a necessary function for living which can't be said about your desire to pirate video games.

Pointing out that your excuse of not being able to afford something as a reason to pirate is still selfish behavior.

Any day now. The bombshell is right around the corner...

I'm sure you have but that doesn't mean that your piracy isn't rooted in selfishness.

[–] harpuajim@lemmy.ml -5 points 2 years ago

It's a free market. If you don't like what someone is charging for something then don't buy it. If you pirate as a result then that's fine but it's selfish behavior.

I pirate because I'm selfish, just like most other people in this thread.
