I'm not dictating anything, I'm describing well-documented industrywide actions and refuting known propaganda from bad actors.

That's the beauty of objective reality: it's true whether you agree with it or not.

Lol… k. Apologies for raining on your little pirate parade, but you’re not the good guys. You never were.

There goes the bullshit binary thinking lol. I never claimed that all pirates are invariably right about everything, as that would be preposterous.

That being said, though, the abuse, profiteering, propaganda and gaslighting that has infested the entertainment industry like a cancer is much worse than anything pirates ever did.

Man I love the fruitful discussion on this site.

The minute I disagreed with them, any chance of a fruitful discussion left the building. Pirates are about as bad as the ACAB kids. You can’t disagree with them with our being insulted and fed bullshit anecdotal nonsense as arguments.
