"I can point to TONS of articles where you make excuses for piracy and take a view that pirates generally agree with"
We are not pirates fucktard and we are waiting for said tons of articles.
I am however going to download something whether I want to watch it or not in honor of your bullshit every time you flap your gums without facts. Now we can blame piracy on failed, deprecated business models AND YOU.
"That is an absolute falsity. Copyright is for a limited time"
Not on planet earth is isn't.. What planet are you on?
If copyright continuously gets extended then it doesn't end. That the media cartel has not de-facto spent enough cash to extend it forever, yet, does not make your argument, or rather lack there of accurate. Thinking that they would have not already done so if they could is laughable at best.
Furthermore, the point and inherent right(as it should be) to post anonymously, has exactly jack shit to do with enabling folks like you to act like a 4 year old.
"But you and I both know that when it's a dissenting view, you'll go to any lengths to try and discredit them--including revealing information that you shouldn't."
Would you care to cite that with something or in any way shape or form elaborate on that?
Calling folks names accomplishes nothing, which is effectively what you accomplish when you post here.
You want some discourse, we are happy to oblige. That assumes we happen to stumble across a fact or two in any of your adolescent, word salad trains of thought you have going on.
Seriously? Ok, I will bite.... Its the lolcat, you know, internet meme, likely one of the first at that. Its a perfect illustrative depiction of the task at hand and actually sorta funny.
I was quite civil when I recently made a post on their facebook page, it has since been removed and I can no longer create any sort of discourse over there. Not that I expected any sort of rational response.
I guess I will have to take my shit to the streets on this one.

That said, only a complete scumbag of a lawyer would refrain from telling him that the lawsuit is a waste of time and money.
