    “A smart person would pirate quietly without letting the world know” While posting “I do it & I don’t want some validation…”

      Hypocrisy doesn’t make them incorrect. If you’re going to be a pedant get better at it.

        To be fair, saying on the one hand what a smart person would do, and on the other hand doing the exact opposite, makes them a dumb person even by their own standards. At which point it matters less if one particular statement of theirs is correct or not, cause they’ve established themselves as an untrustworthy source.

        Disclaimer: I don’t actually know if the previous poster meant to go in this direction or not.

          How stupid a person is doesn’t change how correct an objectively correct statement is irrelevant of if you “trust them as a source”. Just like how smart you are doesn’t change that you’ve made an objectively incorrect statement. Fox news can still give you the correct time of day even if you wouldn’t respect their opinion on how hot it is.

      As much fun as setting up a torrent box is, being an argumentative asshole is even better.
