No no, that’s not incorrect actually. I never deprived anyone of anything. I merely make a copy. See? Good pirate !
Good thing the corporations aren’t people, then
nor are the billionaires running them.
A good pirate doesn’t steal other peoples stuff! They simply take a copy. Yarr.
99 copies of a movie on the wall, 99 copies of that movie. Take one down, pass it around, still 99 copies of that movie on the wall
I dunno, if you take a copy for some reason there’s now 100 copies of that movie on the wall.
We’re hurting the economy by NOT making free copies of valuable content.
I like the way you think
As someone outside America’s (and upper-class England’s) sphere of education extortion, those who pirate and distribute textbooks are true gods - we get to learn for free for fifteen years, so should everyone.
9999 copies of that movie by my count, matey!
Arrr!
Well shiver me timbers matey!
They’re not totally wrong though. A huge share of the goods the Caribbean pirates “stole” didn’t belong to their “victims” anyway. In fact, most of it had previously been stolen from the native Americans who had been conquered and killed or extorted from slaves on the plantations. Stealing from a robber isn’t stealing imho.
Another, more modern example are the pirates of Somalia, who originally were fishermen. Only when foreign ships came into their waters to steal their fish and dispose toxic waste, they began to arm themselves to “steal” their own goods back.
Unless they were returning the treasure to the natives, it’s still stealing dude lol
Good luck bringing back a treasure to the rightful owner, when the rightful owner has been killed along with his family. Also, usually the thieves would not write “stolen from person X in Y” on their gold bars.
And let’s not forget that a non-negligible part of the pirates were in fact former slaves that either fled on their own or have been freed directly by other pirates. So they basically fought their previous “owners”.
Explain to me how overfishing and dumping by neighbour countries somehow justifies taking hostage a ship transporting goods from China to Europe?
If you steal my food and poison my soil until my family is starving, you shouldn’t be surprised when I come back at you. And don’t expect me to steal the fish back, that you’ve already eaten. Of cause I’ll take whatever I can get hold of.
It weren’t primarily neighbour countries, it were especially European and Chinese vessels that were doing that shit.
Okay you go there and do better then, smart guy.
Potatoes
Those are the worst pirates I’ve ever heard of.
Ah, but you have heard of them!
I have no idea who they are.
Jake and the Neverland Pirates. Part of the Peter Pan
cash cowextended universe, I guessThis is a brilliant joke, regardless of whether it was intentional.
Thank you :) I indeed parodied the DCEU
They understand perfectly. This is called propaganda. They are trying to brainwash kids into not being good pirates.
Good luck with that, kids are learning pirating from their parents super young. Its really common at least in my area. It comes up in random conversation with strangers sometimes.

Also Disney:
Okay but… He wasn’t a good pirate.

Honestly, this is potentially among the top five best film dialog moments of the past thirty years.
In a world without global connectivity think how much this would mean? Mean he was probably harassing the British so maybe not as much as it could…
To me it means that so many have lived to tell the tale. And its consistently poor tale.
I mean, yes. What is copied isn’t taken.
Disney: :| … >:|
Congressmen: “But… is it illegal?”
Disney: “I will make it illegal.”
Which kinda mean downloading Disney movie and series isn’t bad, because i didn’t take it from them, i merely copy from the internet and their stuff is still there, and
seedshare the thing i like.I AM a good pirate.
Obviously you must be an artist…
If buying isn’t owning…
You wouldn’t download a pirate ship.
To hell with that, I’d download two.
And seed three.
If i could, I probably would, tbh
I just want to point out that Dick Fiasco is the best stripper name ever
I don’t know about that. It sounds like they would be a total disaster on stage.
Hmm, that could actually be entertaining. I’m in.
Well “true good pirates”. However I am somewhere between “chaotic good” and “chaotic neutral”.
This is (somewhat) paradoxical.
- A practically good pirate would steal stuff
- A morally good pirate would not steal stuff
- A practically bad pirate would not steal stuff
- A morally bad pirate would steal stuff.
So you have to be bad to be good and good to be bad.
Ah but Copyright Infringement isn’t theft. So you can be practically AND morally good!
My brain hurts 😜
Here we see a fake Disney pirate confront a real Disney pirate…
They know exactly what they’re talking about.
They’re LYING!
They’re lying to children. Your children. For their own gain.
