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. |

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.
