This is the man who just bought Paramount/CBS and Warner Bros for his son and fired Stephen Colbert.
If you care about this, you might want to consider whether to ever turn CBS on again.
Also, folks should cancel their Paramount+ subscriptions if they haven't already.
Yeah all 3 of you should cancel.
Consumers: “But I wanna watch this show! I’ll literally die without it, you don’t understaaaaaand!”
People's unwillingness to do the easy shit is why I hold little hope.
Omg! Think of the minor level of sacrifice!
Right? I know the hard shit is hard and I’m not going to make demands for it, but I’m getting real tired of the fact that I get more hate for telling people they shouldn’t reward the bad behaviour of evil people than the evil people get.
There's always BitTorrent.
If piracy actually deprived IP owners of money I’d being torrenting all day every day until they were broke lmao
It deprives them of money if people would have paid otherwise. It generally doesn't though, because most people will just pay up. If people are able to be convinced to pirate instead, they'd lose money from that effect. (It wouldn't cost them money, but it would lose them money they could have made.)
I watched avatar to spite them
The respect I can bring up for you depends on how you answer this question:
Which Avatar do you mean?
Aang
I should re watch the series.
Some days ago I saw something about the movie, and I'm already astonished at how bad it is. Still better than the blue weirdos though.
Idk, Last Airbender is the worst movie I've ever paid money to see. I saw Avatar for free and thought it was meh, but it's still vastly more watchable than that Shyamalanian catastrophe. Like, at least the dialogue doesn't sound like it was written in crayon.
Probably right. It's been a while. i still laugh at the bending
That makes no sense. What is the point you are trying to make exactly?
I read it as "torrent isn't stealing, but if it was id do it even harder because those guys suck".
Seems like the obvious interpretation, not sure how the other guy missed it
I hate what Paramount made of Star Trek, so I cancelled everything years ago anyway.
He's another one with Daddy issues. It's always the Daddy issues.

Note how it's the post WW2 jews all hypocriticaly committing the worst attrocities of the 21st century.
He should know better! The motherfucker! We saved his ungrateful ass!
There are two kinds of people: those who want to remove the boot from the neck and those who want to be the one wearing the boot.
Is there something that breaks in these people due to living in post WW2 abundance? He has not even been directly victimized by Nazis, but I feel these people have all the entitlement of victims, a.k.a knowing the worst of it, and feeling the need for revenge, while having gone through none of the suffering.
Like, do they adopt racial theory from hearing about what their predecestors went through, and become supervillians?
What the fuck is going on with Israel and certain individuals?
EDIT: I also noticed it's always the 40's/50's boomers in positions of power, actively trying to exterminate humankind.
