“Uh well yeah I couldn’t find the first thing about this topic with a map and a tour guide, but I’m still the expert in this super serious debate.”
You barged in on me rolling my eyes at someone for making a simple mistake… and took three tries to even understand that’s what was going on. Yes. Yes I do doubt your understanding of the general concept and its laws.
Fortunately I don’t care about your opinion of either, because what this specific thread is ABOUT is whether forums should support civil disobedience.
This is a community for breaking certain laws.
It doesn’t break laws, itself. It’s as defensible as any marijuana-enthusiast subforum. So we’re wondering why the line is drawn here, and if this is where the line stops. A lot of other morally necessary discussions on Lemmy will concern such laws.
Anyone going “but there’s laws!” is confused.
None moreso than the people who don’t even know their name.
“Nuh-uh I already won acuz I said so. You are humiliated. Humiliated!”
Meanwhile.
In reality.
This is obviously something people do host. There’s a website (with mirrors) at the center of this topic. The website we’re on now, and the service it’s built on, made some promises about discussing that law-breaking website, and readily hosts some law-breaking content directly.
We’re trying to question several intermediate steps in that complex relationship.
You’re trying to project an irrational emotional state on someone who’s been steering you back toward that as gently as you deserve.
Even if the answer is that we all have to find a new host - or do it ourselves, which is an option - all this railing about the laaaw will have contributed precisely dick. We’re familiar, thanks. Some of us are fundamentally opposed to it existing in any form. We reserve the right to ask ‘what the hell’ when someone invites us onto their rug so they can yank it out from under us. If you find any opinion on that besides trying to essentially degrade a pseudonymous stranger, let me know.
Oh yeah buddy you got me. I mispelled a word so I don’t know shit. You must’ve gone to harvard with your intellect.
What’s your point? I mispelled a word so I don’t understand the concept or the law?
Want to explain to me how libgen is fair use because it is a transformative work?
Want to argue why I don’t know shit about shit?
Or are you just going to continue to hoist yourself on your own petard?

Hoisting yourself it is, then. How embarrassing this must be for you.
