If you think you NEED a video game badly enough to steal it, I desperately urge you to go outside and touch grass. It is not the only form of entertainment that exists and you are not entitled to it. Guess what? I'm poor and I don't steal. I save up for games I want, or I find something else to entertain myself. You're reaching so far to justify this that you obviously have an over active imagination, why not use it to entertain yourself?
Hey "sport", calling people morons and having a condescending attitude doesn't actually make your point correct. You have yet to address that there are other forms or entertainment or that you were wrong about white torture. If you're incapable of the critical thought needed to form a valid response with actual counterpoints...maybe you're a moron?
By definition stealing is "wrongfully taking or appropriating another person's property, ideas, or attention without permission". By your logic, I am entitled to every thought or idea you or anyone else has ever had because I'm not physically taking something so it's not stealing. Right? Right????
Take morality out of it. Whether pirating games is morally wrong or not is not the question. By definition it IS stealing and by definition, not being able to have a video game is NOT torture.
Take a deep breath. Take a minute. Shave the hair off your neck, put down the pizza rolls. I'll be here when you're ready to admit you're wrong.
Oh...you're actually that moronic...okay well I can't change a mind that's too simple to form rational thoughts.. Try thinking harder and maybe you'll finally develop some wrinkles in your brain. ❤️
Goddamn.
I didn't realize it at the time, but apparently I originally posted my comment for you. 🫡
Also, comparing white torture to not getting a video game is actually insane. If you're in a space where there is ANY mental stimulation, you are not being tortured by the definition of your own source. So maybe you should try rereading it. Out loud. Slowly. Just really make sure you understand what you're incorrectly claiming is a source to back your logic.
You can use a dictionary!!! Quick, use it to look up stealing!!!
