All games are property
And all property is theft


Except IP isn't actually property because it has no scarcity and no one suffers a loss when you download a copy of the original. The only loss is "potential sales" but those sales are predicated on creating a scarcity that does not actually exist.

The natural end to this reasoning is that no digital media can exist, except for crappy nonprofit stuff.


Yeah because no method exists to prefund digital media and no one ever pays anything more than the minimum when things are sold as pay what you want. /s

The Kickstarter model is what led to MN9. But I guess it's true that gamers are content to continue being abused again and again.


You just going to ignore all the good games, including award winning games that came out of Kickstarter and act like no one releases bad games off of Kickstarter? Talk about disingenuous. Especially when people couldn't shut up about how great Hollow Knight was this year and how amped they are for Bloodstained Ritual of the Night.

Also because I'm a (left leaning) libertarian and made him aware of that, he's had extra resentment for me since then.


Right I knew that about you. I am pretty neutral on the left/right divide among libtertarians, because we can both live side by side in our respective societies peacefully and more importantly because authoritarianism is the number one enemy.

Nobody has ever had that right. That's literally a right invented by pirates to try and excuse their piracy.


Read Locke and Hobbs you do not understand what rights are, how they are derived, or how the Bill of Rights was intended to be interpreted (it was controversial to even have it because they rightfully thought people in the future might think rights not listed didn't exist).


Thank you for schooling him. The guy claims to be a libertarian and didn't like me telling him that he's not even close. Looks like it's because he has no clue about political philosophy and civics at all.


Wait this guy is a libertarian defending IP? Are you serious?

Actually, YOU need to read up on the philosophical roots of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, since you seem to think they create ANYTHING for citizens.

All they do is tell the GOVERNMENT what it can and cannot do. THAT IS ALL. It doesn't create rights, and it most certainly isn't needed to enforce rights in any way. Innate property rights are all that's necessary for me to enforce them myself.


Yeah you clearly do need to read some Hobbs and Locke. You just defined negative rights. What the government can't do. Hence why they are negative. What you are calling a "right" enforcing IP law is actually a violation of people's negative right to freely copy and pass along information.

YOU DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT TO DISTRIBUTE IT AS WELL WITHOUT MY PERMISSION.


I don't really want to explain basic philosophy to you, but you have a negative right to do just that in the state of nature. You are claiming that you can't do it due to some other right, that is a positive right, only governments or a similar organization with a threat of violence can enforce such "rights". I mean it's like you live in the US but have zero understanding of the philosophical roots of the Constitution and bill of rights. Go read up on Locke and Hobbs and then get back to me.

Even if we had unlimited resources, you still don't have an innate right to someone else's work. If I make something, even if all the materials to make it are infinite, and even if I'm able to create an infinite number of copies of it, I have a RIGHT not to distribute it, and literally zero argument you could possibly make negates that.


Oh you are trying to create positive rights. That's always what wrecks everything in these discussions. You have unlimited negative rights, but it is impossible to create a positive right without trampling on someone else's negative rights. In order for you to get what you want you have to make the government prevent others from freely distributing copies they obtained. If you never distributed it and it's on a private server then yeah you win, because someone needs to break in and hack or steal your property to get a copy. But if you distributed it and someone uploads a copy you have no ability to stop them without removing their negative rights.

The lack of scarcity or the fact that a copy doesn't disappear doesn't mean it isn't property. Also, they definitely suffer a loss - the money you owe them for the copy you stole, that you won't pay.


Yeah you don't seem to understand the difference between the law in the US (or whatever country you are basing this on) and the philosophical moral concept. The concept of IP is relatively new in history and it is a pervasion of property because if we lived in a world with no scarcity we wouldn't need property laws to begin with. Scarcity is a bad thing. We shouldn't want scarcity. Economics is how we deal with people's unlimited wants for limited goods. Creating scarcity artificially makes the world a worse place because it makes it harder for people to get what they want for no reason other than extracting profit. It is morally wrong, just as it would be if I had an apple tree that magically grew a new apple every time someone picked one and I charged them money for it anyway.

Government service/expenditures/taxes/redistribution etc. has nothing to do with socialism. Socialism is about who controls the means of production (the workers in socialism). Welfare-state capitalism, sometimes called social democracy, is designed to prevent the claimed needs for socialism. Those European countries people call socialist are all massively capitalist, but people's understanding of political ideologies in America is awful.

Thats putting a lot of faith in security. I can think of a few ways around that depending on the situation and level of security.


How would you get the chemicals into the bullet even if you could get them through? It just prints plastic. I mean if you think you can sneak a functional bullet that easily people could just use a hammer and a pipe to make a crude single shot gun.
