y'know if i were filthy criminal scum i might say something like

"wow, y'know, piracy really makes the world go 'round. my life would be SO MUCH MORE BORING and devoid of any sort of artistic expression if i never learned how to get large strings of ones and zeros for free. i can't imagine what it must be like being too afraid to or having weird moral hangups about it"

but i'd never steal media!!! even though it's only making a copy!!!! still theft somehow imo!!!!! i would never download a car

i might add

"i wouldn't be a video editor, i wouldn't listen to any of the music i like, i would've never seen my favorite movies, etc.

i'd be such a different, more boringer person"

but that would be bad so i would never say that

like

goddamn

just imagining what it must be like

having your access to media and software gated by money

especially if you're poor

shit's gotta suck

...is something i would say if i was a dirty pirate! which i'm not!!!
