Now you’re just pulling out quotes from nowhere. Again, piracy can have the same impacts as theft, and distributing peoples art and works without their consent erodes peoples ability to create. You are misstating the original post as if it were about the notion of theft, it wasn’t it was arguing that copyright can’t exist (when it clearly does). If we lived in a post-scarcity world then I would agree there would be no reason to enforce copyright, but that is a fantasy, we don’t and people have to earn a living. There is a reason all countries strive to enforce copyright and that is because it fundamentally protects creation and innovation.

> Now you’re just pulling out quotes from nowhere. If you're not willing to have a discussion in good faith what is even the point in engaging in one. Clearly I made a mistake replying at all. You deriding other commentors repeatedly should have been a dead giveaway to me.

  > If you're not willing to have a discussion in good faith > You deriding other commentors Accusing me of not having this discussion in good faith is what exactly? I guess if you can’t support your argument you’ve got to pivot to something - but that doesn’t contribute to the discussion.
