RE: My Ideology: I thought I was a liberal national socialist - turns out it is called libertarian socialism

in #politics7 years ago (edited)

The quote was from the video you linked.

You don't believe in intellectual property because you've never had an idea to be stolen off you. Just imagine you did do something creative, and then I took that idea and got rich.

You will never offend me.

yes it is, but there is protection of original ideas in copyright laws. Otherwise there would be no music or literary industry. I can't just put my name on harry potter books. If you don't believe in intellectual property you're by definition fine with me taking all the books in the world, putting my name on them and selling them. Is this not theft?

You've obviously never had a soul destroying job. Again, if you work in a creative industry you're correct. But if you're (as I've had to do before) unboxing something, peeling a label off, sticking a new label on and boxing it up (as new) again, stuck in a massive but freezing cold warehouse, trust me you need to be managed to be productive.

wait, I thought I replied here already...

Just imagine you did do something creative, and then I took that idea and got rich.

no problem with that, he should not claim to be the original author, but he can use and expand on my ideas however he wants. This is how science work btw, sadly it does not do that because of capitalism.

You've obviously never had a soul destroying job

A good month of working in a butchery every day. I was not often in the cold warehouse, but I was marinading bath tub loads of frozen meat by hand and 3 years at the register of a gas station, which is actually quite more soul crushing over time than you would expect.

I dont think you should be able to just slap your label on someone elses work, but even crediting them often does not protect me from copyright laws.
