I'm not sure a movie called "The patent scam" is going to be seen as an unbiased, convincing source by any fence sitter.

- henvic 6y agoWhy does it has to be unbiased? Alas, there's no such thing as unbiased.
- gruez 6y ago>Alas, there's no such thing as unbiased. So basically, neutrality nihilism? ie. "every source is biased so it doesn't matter whether I'm getting my climate change facts from the IPCC or InfoWars".
- henvic 6y agoNo. It's more along the lines of: It doesn't make sense to give conspiracy theorists any space for the sake of neutrality.
- nl 6y agoI agree with this. But this is different to conspiracy theorists. There is a range of reasonable, good faith positions to take on this issue (eg, some on this discussion advocate the abolishment of copyright - not just patents - which is a position many in the software industry would disagree with).
