Ohh I'm sorry, were you saying something, racist? See I just redefined "racist" to mean anyone who disagrees with me. It's all a matter of semantics, anyways, isn't it?

It's not a matter of semantics at all. It's a matter of using words properly. Digital Piracy has a proper definition. Stealing has a proper definition. They are not the same. You can't just start re-defining well established terms to fit your narrative. Piracy is not theft and you're just going to have to come to terms with that.

I pirate stuff all the time but I literally just looked up the definition of piracy on dictionary.com and yes, it's stealing. People go to jail for it! People pay fines for it! 

 

Just admit that you and I are criminals. Like Han Solo. We're a couple of Han Solos.

Copyright infringement is illegal. That does not mean it's stealing. It's akin to saying that Copyright infringment is tax evasion because people also go to jail and pay fines for that.
