people aren’t protecting their copyright for religious or moral reasons. they’re doing it for a shitton of money. it’ll probably go away around the same time as land ownership.
- hunkyDori 4y agoNext generation won’t have the same direct benefit from those old ideas and is watching their buying power be deflated right how to insure them; old protectionism memes hold little value right now. If some app can just generate Mario quality gameplay that looks like anything, why pay Nintendo? Generational churn and social media have gotten in the way of the “remember American history and pride.” They quit teaching George Washington and the cherry tree nonsense in grade schools a while ago. A whole bunch of kids are growing up outside the filter bubble of 20+ years ago, and they’re voting age now, only going to become a bigger share of the voting bloc. They’ll be defining future social value stores and have no love for the old Empire. They’re not post war shellshocked and Cold War paranoids that huffed leaded gas before its ban. A very different social mindset is aging into political power.
