Re: replying
Thanks for the "Free Culture" tip. I'll check it out.
If Wikipedia is incorrect, then change it. Don't just sit there and throw stones at it. It's funny that you embrace products of freedom in one paragraph and ridicule something that you are empowered to affect in another.
Just because a country's government espouses XYZ policy, does not mean the culture as a whole embraces it. Case in point: TPB. The "culture as a whole" doesn't do anything as a whole except disagree with itself. As you hopefully could tell, I'm very much for changing our copyright laws and ending the current hypocrisy.

said by TKJunkMail  :said by funchords :said by karlmarx :And pray tell me, why exactly SHOULD [other countries] respect copyright? Because we are a global community, and most of the globe has recognized copyright as a way to create and support the industry of creating entertainment and dispensing information. But KarlMarx's communist philosophy is that "the people" own everything and individuals own nothing. This is utter BS, simply dead FALSE.
BTW this common false-iditic belief about Marxism is very virulent here, in the USA, where people are gravely ill-educated about these things, thanks to the craptastic quality of firs- and second-level US education, especially compared to their Asian or European countrerparts.

(+1 for the funny use of "craptastic"!)

You said it, man! Most have never read a single page about Marxism and only parrots what they've been told by ignorants in the corporate media. | |
