    Nah, that’s like saying capitalism is a scam.

    Copyright and capitalism in general is fine. It’s when billion dollar corporations use political donations to control regulations

    Like, imagine a year after Hangover came out. 20 production companies all released Hangover 2.

    Imagine it was a movie by a small Indie studio so a big studio paid off the original actors to be in their knockoff.

    Or an animated movie that used the same digital assets.

    We need some copyright protection, just not a never ending system

      Capitalism is a scam.

      It’s an unsustainable system predicted on infinite growth that necessitates unconscionable inequality.

        You dropped the “unregulated”.

        Socialism is still capitalism. It’s just regulated and we use taxes to fund social programs.

        And the second sentence is more caused by not taxing stock trades. If we had a tax that decreases the longer a stock is held, it would prioritize long term investment and companies would care about more than the next months earnings.

        All shit that can be solved with common sense regulations.

          I’m not aware of any common sense regulations that take precedence over corporate profits, but keep up the good fight I guess.

            Did you miss that?

            I know starting a new paragraph for each sentence helps more people understand because they tend to skip paragraphs, but my comment was only 6 sentences

            I figured two sentences a paragraph wasn’t too much.

              I didn’t miss it.

              You misunderstood my comment. These regulations you’re talking about either don’t exist or they are ineffective, because we are suffering the greatest economic inequality in history while corporate profits are at an all time high.

              But good luck, I hope you become super rich doing business so you don’t have to suffer with the rest of humanity. Have fun buying clean water tokens in a couple decades!

                If they were already in effect, we wouldn’t need them because they already existed…

                When we have them corporations pay lots of money to politicians to convince them we don’t need them because they’re working.

                So when someone says we need regulations, it’s a pretty safe bet the regulations theyre talking about don’t exist yet, and they’re saying they should…

                You can tell that’s what they mean, because it’s literally what they’re saying.

                At least most of the time most people can.

                I’m not sure why you keep not getting this and acting like you’re over replying. Then replying again.

                Blocking is easier, it’s what I do when people don’t understand basic stuff while having an attitude about it.

                Let me show you an example.

            Why do all the accounts with “commie” in the name have no idea about any economic systems?

            I don’t think any of them actually support communism either, it’s just weird I block so many and they always keep showing up

      Those are fundamental features of the current system. If you want to suggest a copyright system that does protect smaller creators from bad actors but doesn’t allow the mega-corps to bully and control everyone, then feel free. But until such a system is implemented it see no reason to defend the current one which is actively harmful to the vast majority of creators.

        That’s the system that was implemented…

        It worked fine until corporations realized both parties like money. Which didn’t take long.

        And I just said the current situation isn’t good…
