You hit the nail on the head. That’s why they’re downvoting and arguing. It personally benefits them to steal.

I’ve said it several times here…I don’t care if people pirate stuff. There are a myriad of reasons to do so. My issue is with the dishonesty of pretending it’s not stealing. Keep doing it, I don’t care, but own up to what you’re doing and admit it’s stealing.

It’s mental gymnastics because they need to be able to continue stealing but don’t want to feel bad about it.
