Trustfunds? You think every success is a Rockefeller or something? Just ask as family member for a million dollar loan to start a business, that's how all the modern greats have done it. (/s plz don't hurt me)

My issue was with the headline and the article not making anything clear. You're not repeating the headline in your argument so I think we're done here.
That's a questionable headline considering it was police interpreting an existing law (no courts or legislator has weighed in on the incident in the article). Read a better source here: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/11/10/germany-gaza-protests-crackdown
Wait, instead of metaphor you meant a literal example? Absurd indeed to compare rape to downloading something illegally.
Yes, that's the definition of a service. Just not sure what your point is about talking about prostitutes as if one was steeling a service when they get raped. Steeling from creatives is rape or something?
Sex is a fleeting service.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here.
saying that those who create are entitled to the value of what they create.
Here I was thinking we all deserved a giant meteor.
The publisher example is one of a difference in power and you're saying that IP is there to protect the author. Except this whole video is about how that doesn't happen anymore. The law is written and litigated by those with power.
The corporations exist to extract as much ownership as possible from the creative class, it is not a proxy ownership by those doing the collaborative work. See the recent WGA strike as an example. Unions and co-ops are the proxies, not corporations.
Prostitutes can't have a romantic life unless they're paid to do so? This is such a bizarre metaphor, let's see where it leads 🍿
Also: if there's no consent it's not steeling, it is rape. It's really strange to think how because of someone's profession we recontextualize the act as steeling and not rape. Ie it's like saying one is steeling from prostitutes while not addressing the fucking rape. This is your brain on Milton Friedman economics - where your body is capital and it has a price.
They said nothing about the violence being random. If anything, it would take some planning.
