      This kind of thing is why the "free culture" movement from when I was in college was so utterly unsuccessful at winning over the hearts and minds of the vast majority of working artistshttps://twitter.com/JoshuaYJackson/status/1244269783610265605 …

      Super rich author Chuck Wendig is crying that poor people might be able read his third rate books for free online. What a loser. He should be grateful to be published. https://twitter.com/ChuckWendig/status/1244011591395356672 …

      Whatever the merits of anti-copyright philosophy in the abstract, if you yourself are a middle-class consumer who is acting out of the selfish desire to torrent games for free, and you treat everyone skeptical of your views as a millionaire parasite, people won't like you

      I feel like some is a form of accelerationism for UBIs and so on - if you make enough artists starve they'll vote for it

      A lot of the super hardcore "leftist" side of anti-copyright shit takes this stance All art should be completely free to distribute, IP should not exist, artists should do what they do or of love and not any desire for monetary gain

      How should artists pay the rent and buy groceries? They should have equal free access to the necessities of life as everyone should, under conditions of full communism

      It is a stupid argument because of the wild assumption that these two things will just go together as society "evolves" It's like Mr. Pink just never tipping at restaurants because if NOBODY tips then the bosses will HAVE NO CHOICE but to pay servers a decent wage

      The worst thing about this is that honestly the hardcore anti-IP stance is antithetical to Marxism and is if anything extremely "liberal" "It doesn't matter who wrote the book, once it exists anyone should be allowed to read it" is textbook alienated labor

          "I'm a fan of the BOOK, not the author, I don't see why I owe the author anything just because they wrote a book I like, they already got paid years ago" is textbook commodity fetishism - delusionally thinking you have a relationship with a product and not a person

          Like it doesn't matter what you call it "Copying isn't stealing", fine From a Marxist POV, is there still a person who performed labor, and did you gain value from that labor without their consent? Do they feel ripped off? Then you're practicing exploitation
