Ah yeah the weird propaganda that people labor to make creative output, and if you value that output and have the means, you should consider paying for it. Als

Ah yeah the weird propaganda that people labor to make creative output, and if you value that output and have the means, you should consider paying for it. Also, read what I wrote: "if you want to pirate, fine, but don't act like you're performing a noble act". What specifically bugs me is less so the act - I assume few among us haven't engaged in illegal streaming, paywall bypassing, password sharing etc. - it's the weird contortions people go through to frame piracy as a noble endeavor vs. just admitting they're being too cheap to pay for something.
