    So, something is only theft if it is profitable?

    That’s a wonderfully liberating new definition.

      Yeah, let’s just take the Mona Lisa and shread it.

      Can’t be stealing if I don’t make money from it, right?

        Ok chief. Because it really reads like you just said that in the comment above.

          You know, I remember not too long ago when people on Lemmy tried to interpret each other charitably. Then everyone from Reddit came over, polluting the culture, and now practically every exchange on here feels like it’s in bad faith.

            Your account is 2 months old.

            Not really in a position to opine there.
