anti-copyright sentiment looks good on paper until you start breaking down the actual issues behind its erosion like that thread did. i find it antithetical to actual leftist values, since copyright erosion harms the indies more than it does bigger names.

i'll cosign this

isn't disney partnering with openai or something tho

used to be friends with a 'leftist' on tumblr who argued against ip proection and copyright and thats when i started distancing myself tbh. they had a bunch of other questionable takes too that i shrugged off because i didn't know enough about the topic to form my own opinion at the time but yeah

"When we get UBI..."

OK, work on that first, then.

Because I see a lot more erosion of IP rights than I see useful movement on the "give everybody money" project.

Which makes me think y'all might not be on my side.

My side is the one where artists don't starve.

starting to think cyberpunk RED/2020/2077 is a prophecy

they never did

yeah does not pass the vibecheck. you read like a bot.

right. i think that about a lot of things that massively consume power. most of it is integral in peoples day to day lives though, wheras genai isn't. ai related tech that tries to reduce its carbon footprint is already better imo but theres still a long way to go.

very neat

thats not really how that works. gotta post something interesting to somebody enough to want to engage with it, even if its just a like. a singular post about wanting interaction with no indication of who you are as a person or interests is not doing it.
