Lol

aka a person who is basically a facist (His vp, (silencing people, throwing them in jail for absouletely no reason) or a communist

But the thought process is the same, except for in the issue of pirating, the person taking the game/movie is gaining a game, while the creator/owner, get nothing. Pirating is theft, whether on a huge scale or a small scale. You take something that is not rightfully yours, without paying for it. But nobody makes money because usually a trade off isn't money for money, but money for product or service.

people would be too stupid to go against Biden since hes so moderate and has no stances, people would be a lot more enthusiastic to stand against Bernie, and hte people who support him would change sides *eventually* when they start seeing how bad its trying to get

Yeah pirating is theft even if the company in question has plenty of money

I never said it wasn’t theft

Maybe I’m just thinking of it like a Robin Hood situation I dunno

steal from the rich give to the poor

No I’m not a socialist

Yeah I see your mindset at least

I just don’t like huge corporations telling me what to do

Okay, but that’s acting like Robin Hood was in the right to steal? He was stealing from the government due to unfair taxes, but this is stealing from corporations, because you believe you can determine the value of their goods.

Yeah that’s the issue ^

perfectly put Froski

> Okay, but that’s acting like Robin Hood was in the right to steal? He was stealing from the government due to unfair taxes, but this is stealing from corporations, because you believe you can determine the value of their goods.
@Froski Corporations that control the government.

And in the case of many corporations, are controlled by China

Did Tyler just reveal unusual intelligence? He just said in his latest vid everyone has to take Calculus in high school. Maybe he did but I think you have to be in AP math to be taking Calculus in high school unless schools have changed since my youth. (Though I suppose that’s very possible)

if you opt for more advanced classes, yes, you can take calculus in high school

@Razor Racoon I’m in Honors Pre-Calc as a Junior

I'm in geometry as a freshman lol

Yes, AP stands for “Advanced” ... uhm... something.

Advanced Placement

But it’s not the standard. That’s what I’m saying.

And? Do you get to determine the value of the goods of another just because who owns the business?

Thx, war dog!

I determine the values of goods and services based on what the goods and services are worth

Value is subjective. Agree. Wait, what are we talking about? Don’t make me scroll up. Haha

@Razor Racoon piracy

Okay, so are you saying that games that you would decide to steal through piracy have no value?

No I’m saying it’s not worth $60 or more

Would you steal printer ink from staples just because it's overpriced?

Printer ink is pretty expensive 🤔

...

But no because that’s taking a physical item

Well, the worth isn't up to you. And when you think of the amount of work, time, etc. that goes into making a game or movie, and all the people that get paid in the process, it is probably worth enough. Although all you may see is the corporation, each corporation relies on employees. If you do not believe it to be worth what the corporation is selling it for, don't buy it. But at the same time, no matter what you have determined the worth to be, it is theft and therefore wrong.

There is a “limited” quantity of the cartridges for printer ink

Some of these games cost hundreds of thousands or more to make

There is a limited quantity in regards to server capacity as well. Even though you may not hold the game, it has a physical item value.

He is in law school lol^

And the "physical item" aspect fails to, especially when you begin looking into services...should we decide not to pay doctors and make hospitals free because we have determined the value to be less than what they charge?

Alright then
