@CreamCat It's not a matter of individual creative decisions. You're still in-denial about the industry's culture being systematically run by toxic masculinity values. Yikes, man. What you just said implies that women are inherently lazier than men.

@Leo Gura's official response

Your position is simply nonsensical. Everything can be explained. Pure randomness could not possibly create the universe we live in. And be careful with your rhetoric. From my experience, this forum isn't for people who don't think before they post.

@Nak Khid I was referring to "Worst Philosophy Ever" That's hardly the kind of title that sparks a reasonable debate. Not to mention, you haven't even elaborated on your position so we don't have anything to go off of when talking to you about it.

I'm predicting this thread will get locked pretty quickly. Not because of the topic itself but because of the way you presented your position. Also, clickbait title. This isn't just your regular forum.

His shirt did a Micheal Jackson.

Dammit. I was going to say that.

to my Father You never figured the guile of this world. But still served with absolute devotion to all you could. You were always stumped by the many things that your children became But did not fail to support or celebrate their success As a Husband, our Beloved Mother said there could be no better. Your innocuous Presence has been Impressive With Much Love, Sadhguru

Lazy bum

Yes he does! Freedom of Speech: "I'll say whatever I damn want!" Family Values: That means Nepotism, right? Human Rights: He certainly loves people on the Right.

'This has gone is beyond parody'

Don't compare them to mosquitoes. These massive companies are even more blood-thirsty, disgusting, abhorrent creatures.

Low Quality Art has its places, sure. But it doesn't have a place on literally every platform available. Certainly not Steam if Steam would actually exercise some damn quality control.

Stumbled upon this video series advocating for complete abolishment of copyright law. It's very Stage Green because it goes full-on relativistic. While it did open my mind to severely weakening copyright law as it is today, I feel that it did not give a good enough argument to COMPLETELY ABOLISH it. Be sure to check out the videos first, I give a short response below. My response: I agree that copyright law should be severely weakened but completely abolishing copyright law would make it perfectly legal to steal someone else's work and sell it as your own without changing anything about it or mentioning the original artist. I'm not even talking about sampling here, I'm saying I could literally take any one of your albums and sell them as if they were my own. Also, it would allow hack artists with a severe lack of creative vision to run amok and create extremely low quality derivative works that steals works and ideas from other artists. You might think that it still counts as freedom of speech but pragmatically speaking, that would be a huge problem to artists who actually care about creating highly original visionary works. It's hard to tell where we should draw the line but refusing to draw a line at all would be devastating.

There's another video of hers (she's trans) that also tries to advocate for almost complete freedom to post anything you want. It's less about copyright but the attitude is about the same. Again, her intentions are good but I think some of her points are horribly misguided. She basically tries to argue against quality control because it's hard to objectively judge works of art. Therefore, Steam should just allow any games of incredibly low quality because. . . they shouldn't be allowed to make subjective judgements as a platform holder? Jesus. . . this video is. . . bad.

@Hansu By the way, I don't think the videos are 'Shitting on Original Artists'. They're really more about having more tolerance for smaller, less talented artists. A very common theme in the video is "Freedom of Speech" which always gets me a bit queasy because people on YouTube generally don't understand the nuances of freedom when they talk about it. And this particular Youtuber, while their intentions are good, definitely doesn't understand how freedom works in the big picture.

@Hansu It's fine, I get it.

Wait. . . I'm confused. Is that directed towards me? Dude, I was critiquing the idea that we should abolish copyright. Also, I'm not even sure how what you said addresses what you quoted I said. It feels like a non-sequitur.

The guy supports Trump soooo. . . . I guess Trumpists must be creative geniuses.

I predict this thread will get closed pretty quickly. You clearly aren't here to learn. Just spreading dumb materialistic ideology that you refuse to question.

Heeeey. . . while we're on the topic of Bethesda's Devilry

Incredibly Contemplative YouTube Video. It's quite amazing.
