the thing that was wrong is people are retarded and think being technically correct in the fact these things happened means we ought to follow harry's prescription that hate mobs drive people to suicide to protect the intellectual property of disposable tabloid articles. im amazed at just how poorly the common man is at framing things and at even recognizing that things are being framed.When the takedown video came out, I couldn't quite put my finger on it but something really rubbed me the wrong way (beyond the surface-level lib, soy, etc stuff). The points Hbomb brought up are all true but it still felt like there was something important lurking just below the surface.
for instance. say i copy a kiwifarmers post, theres a few paths "lol who gives a fuck" "lol meltys kinda a fag" or the hbomb path "this is a scourge, heres all the other shitty things melty did, uh oh melty is that a zoophilic post there maybe? get this thieving squirrel fucker off the site (please totes dont harass him though i mean it guys im not just covering my ass i just care about the ethics of original shitposting)
or my comment here, im framing it with my personal opinion that the subtext of hbombs video was that these people are cretins and a main source of plagiarism and that wiping that out means wiping them out. now im not lying and i have supporting evidence in that the guy at least feels the need to make people think hes dead as his life was ruined, but that is a framing, an hbomb fan would just say "oh no harry just pointed out the fact he stole and i guess he couldnt handle it.
