    It’s really weird how so many people have become advocates for abolishing copyright the moment it benefits a giant corporation. No thought, no nuance, just “copyright bad.”

    It would be like somebody shouting about abolishing unions during the Starbucks protests, because police unions exist.

      People have been saying Copyright is BS since at least the 90s when Disney pulled their shenanigans (again) and probably even before that

        But isn’t it funny that so many of them have emerged when their nuance-free absolutism helps a big corporation and not the people it’s harming?
