Is starting massively pirating things the right thing to do? (lemmy.world)

I’ve begun discontinuing many US services in favor of EU ones. However, I’ve noticed that some individuals, instead of simply ceasing to use American products, resorted to illegally downloading everything. While it’s true that the money goes to the US when you pay, it can’t justify disrespecting others’ hard work and effort while still consuming or using their products, and it is also illegal. This is especially true considering that they likely don’t have any direct connection to MAGA. This applies to actors, directors, YouTubers, and many others. We should simply cease using their products without giving them any further consideration.

Hypothetically speaking Pirate American Stuff especially from the big Studios, support Indies and European Productions

This is especially true considering that they likely don’t have any direct connection to MAGA. This applies to actors, directors, YouTubers, and many others.

You can be assured that the big CEOs of all those Movie Companies the biggest Actors, directors and YouTubers voted for this. (I know there are a few prominent exceptions with Actors and YouTubers)

For most Americans, every thought they have revolves around $$ in their pockets, and tax bill must go down.
