I'll never understand the "Do not share, do not repost" autism so many people seem to have.
In what kind of lala wonderland have they lived until then that they do not realize that the second you post something on the internet it stops being "yours" even if it's technically "yours" it is not "yours" anymore since people can, and will, do whatever the fuck they want with your "yours" that is now "theirs".
Not even a thousand paywalls stop this since there's decided Discords, Forums and and so-on to sharing around such Paywalled content.
Why are they so retarded? Why do they not know how the internet works, has worked, since day 1? Why do they expect the internet to suddenly not be as it has always been because they think of themselves such special snowflakes?
It literally cannot be helped. It's like yelling at a tsunami and telling it to go back to the sea. It's pointless. Useless. Worthless. All it happens is that you'll be crushed against the rocks. Why not just accept the inevitable and grab your nearest surfboard and ride the wave instead? Make the best of what it is?
And now that I'm ranting about this, the very same thing applies about piracy. Like, for example, on the piracy topic, why not simply embrace the audience that you wouldn't have otherwise at all if not for the piracy and start taking advantage of it? You have a new vein to mine. Wouldn't that be more productive that just endlessly rage against the awful pirates? People will just pirate anyway, but now you have a brand new potential audience, that if you play your cards right, will become a new paying audience and fanbase that will spread your name and work and get more people to support you.
Why do people just seek out reasons to be upset and be miserable for? Are they just masochists? Naive? Or just genuinely retarded? I'll truly never understand.
