This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'm not saying that the scarcity of digital goods isn't bullshit, but it's rarely what keeps people poor.
The comment I responded to was regarding climate change and resource consumption, and piracy's "impact" on them, so ...
I didn't understand the meme I responded to to be exclusively talking about piracy.
I mean sure, but the things people are prone to stealing physically, when they wouldn't otherwise but for price, tend to be those they must have just to live. That's not the sort of consumption we can ethically reduce.
