Apparently you and I have polar opposite tastes in those areas. Risa was the first thing I blocked and I’ve been slowly working my way through blocking all the Piracy communities.
I’m here for formula 1, mechanical keyboards, and obscure stuff like weirdly specific playlists.
No, but not being able to have a reasonable discussion with another person without them resorting to nonsense arguments of no merit or personal attacks does bother me.
I have made the personal choice that YouTube premium is a valuable service to me and that I would rather pay for it than go through the rigmarole of PiHole/ad blockers/ripping.
Apparently that makes me a sheep, retard, loser, bitch to corporations, boot licker, dick, uneducated, fuckwad. Just to name a few.
I believe downloading a digital copy of your property is 100% your right. ONLY after you have paid full price for it in a legal manner and if at all possible in physical media.
Apparently that means I’m a slave to the media, a Republican(?), don’t believe in personal rights, and am advocating for a return to absolute monarchy’s.
I believe that it is better to pay for services (even if they are created by mega corporations) and give money directly to the content creators whenever possible. Disney/Marvel, for instance, is massive and has many issues. That doesn’t mean that they didn’t create things that never existed before and deserve to be paid.
Apparently I’m no better than a terrorist against human rights, have no decency, must have had brain damage, and am begging to be ass raped by the elite just to be told I’m a good little consumer.
I believe that the definition of a hypocrite is somebody spouting their beliefs that all ads are evil, mega - corporations deserve to die, and that no content service deserves their money and then also screaming about work reform, and not getting paid a fair living wage, all jobs matter, etc.
Apparently this makes me a proponent for being a wage slave, a blinded consumerist, a white collar elitist who was raised to keep the people down, and a politician dick/cunt sucker, and a worshiper of alphabet, apple, Facebook, twitter and the like.
I loathe what reddit became but the general level of discourse was far more reasonable and measured then what I have experienced here on Lemmy. It’s actually frustrating. What happened to being able to disagree with someone and talk about it in measured responses and open discourse?
I feel like you’re the one sane person who’s willing to voice their opinions. While I do agree that piracy is a service problem in many cases, it’s genuinely insane how quickly the goalpost changes when the service in question is paid. Not enough people realize that creatives can’t make content without a budget to work with, and that budget has to come from somewhere.

You block piracy? Lol does getting shit for free bother you?

Tl;dr
I’m not paying for shit or watching ads. I do not care.
Thank you for making it easy to know who to block. I hope one day you are willing to have open communication with people you disagree with.
Lol
Where’s the mechanical keyboard communities? Not that I need to see any more kb things to waste my money on. 😂
