You wouldn't download the means of production!

[–] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

I like to download the memes of production

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 months ago

Only because I don’t have the storage

I wouldn't. I'd skip a bunch of them.

Is this satire or did americans unironically create this

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 39 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It is satire but Americans have unironically created similar propaganda this is styled after.

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 19 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Yeah. Americans are insane.

[–] BananaPeal@sh.itjust.works 24 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yes, we are.

My trailer trash neighbor hates the new folks across the street because they're from out of state. "This ain't New York!" It's not even racially motivated, everybody is white. I swear he purposely does annoying shit to bother them.

And before anyone judges me for calling them trailer trash, their Wi-Fi is "Trailer Trash."

Wait till you meet the satyrical Americans, they’re even insanerer.

Pirating flacs so I'm safe

[–] Microtonal_Banana@lemmy.zip 23 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I was downloading some christmas albums for my mother in law and she said "isn't downloading mp3s illegal?" And I said "these are flac files its totally different."

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

My mother is also a prime example of piracy hypocrisy.

Piracy bad

and about 1 week later after having complained about the electricity bill my server incurs:

Can you get me this show?

[–] BananaPeal@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 months ago

Not communism! I'm afraid of it threatening trade, free elections, and my individual freedoms.

Certainly unchecked capitalism will save us!

[–] arthur@lemmy.zip 13 points 2 months ago

I want it already, why you keep trying to convince me?

[–] culpritus@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago

the bit-torrent file sharing protocol was the real cyber-communist manifesto the whole time

[–] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 months ago

TIL Mark Zuckerberg is a Communist

(Facebook torrented something like 80 TBs worth of copyrighted data)

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 7 points 2 months ago

Seems like as good a reason as any to do it.

[–] VerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Get off the phone! I'm trying to use the Communism!

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

"You wouldn't download a Communism"

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'd download anything I could get my Commie mitts on.

That old thing about "Would you download a car?" Goddamn right I would.

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago (2 children)

iirc they had to change it from "download" to "steal" because the overwhelming response was "hell yeah I'd download a car!" XD

[–] lka1988@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Obligatory "they stole the music for that clip"

It always reminded me of the Batman: Beyond intro music.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 2 months ago

If I could download a free car through the Internet, I don't care what you call it, I'm in.

[–] slothrop@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 months ago

Vietnam is communist and they're the world's darlings.

This poster seems to indicate that piracy and/or communism are bad things. They are not. Capitalism is a bad thing (unless you are at the top 10% of the wealthiest people on earth). A bit of an imbalance that is not good. When I say 'poster' I mean the image (like posters they used to sell at K-Mart), not the person who posted.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 months ago

Isn't like average US income enough to put you in the top 10% on earth?

I want this on a t-shirt

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 2 months ago

Then call me the Pinko Pirate, or the Bolshevik Bootlegger or the Commie Collector.

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

Now, see, I am not sure of this is real or satire. I really would expect them to try some nonsense like this, so it could be as true as it could be satire...

This makes my brain hurt

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

People still download mp3s like it's the early 2000s? Get with the times, use OPUS
