More pirates vs pirates memes when it should be pirates vs executives

I hear Ireland is the favorite this year

I think the benefits of going high speed rail now would outweigh the negatives of upgrading at a later point.

I never thought to use soulseek for audiobooks, damn

“Flagrantly Illegal”

😂

Yea but with torrenting it’s multiple peers you are connected to. Soulseek only connects you 1-1 so it’s generally lots safer.

Just want to drop this here because of how ridiculous these entertainment cartels can be:

Piracy aides in creating sales.

Up to 3% more for movies in theaters: https://hbr.org/2020/10/the-digital-piracy-dilemma

Agree 100% and I’ve been seeing this “debate” in other instances and communities recently

Piracy is moral and ethical. Small businesses are not the targets. I would download a car, I would download a better life if I could

Access to culture itself if you think about it

I’ve been using Soulseek for a few years now and it’s been awesome with no issues

Let’s make a movie about it and then pirate it

I enjoy torrents, searching and deciding which is the best quality + storage combo is right for me is the fun part

I’m not really sure what you’re trying to say, are the democrats not friendly with ANY big businesses? Is the extreme right wing of US conservatives not motivated by money (Donald Trump is often thought of as a successful venture capitalist, the amount of money funneled out during his presidency, etc…)?

Russia is one of the most inequal countries in the world in terms of wealth distribution, and for decades now oligarchs in Russia have gone hand in hand with the state in eroding any form of democracy and exploiting what freedom those citizens do have.

So, can you really say democracy can exist with money?

Yea it’s totally not that every major news outlet is owned by and serves the interests of the rich.

Hell I got one from a 90’s tv show, they are in torrents where you least expect them

Conservatism Capitalism has always been an ideology that’s opposed to progress, democracy and freedom.

There you go, I fixed that for you.

All political entities serve the needs of capital first and foremost in a capitalist system, people are only a secondary…if that.

So we’ll just be an extension to Reddit then?

Stank memes?

“The RARBG” has an identical UI and looks to be a clone of RARBG

Idk if it’s any good though, maybe someone knows more about it?

I think this touches on a bigger picture… It would only take Reddit handing over that data to change what it meant to have a piacy community on the internet. I’m not sure if people would be willing to trust again if that happened…

I’m glad we moved to Lemmy, and let’s make it work 🏴‍☠️
