They same reason I hate about human right violation practice, despite it doesn't affect my in anyway (some even benefit me, like slavery labor).

(No, I'm not saying they are the "same thing" or the same level of seriousness. Just to demonstrate I can hate things that doesn't affect me negatively.)

That's kind of a circular argument, isn't it?

"Piracy is bad" -> Why? "(One reason is) People get angry that others are getting their paid stuff for free" -> Why would they get angry? -> "Because piracy is bad" -> Why?

etc.

You are making up words for me.

Piracy is bad because it's unfair to honest buyers. This is literally my original argument. Not because people get angry about it, I never even mentioned that to begin with. You are the one who came up with "people get angry" angle by using a crappy analogy.

Do I really need to prove how this is unfair? A paid $60, got a copy of game. B paid $0 by illegal means, got a copy of game.

Same goes to shoplifting, actually. Not sure why it "doesn't hold up". I simply care less because police exists. Regardless if anyone "gets angry", it is an unfair situation.

Hell, you even made up another strawman: "Why would they get angry? -> "Because piracy is bad" -- said no one.

To be Mr. obvious, people get angry because they're in the disadvantaged end of an unfair situation.

Have a nice day, this is my last one.
