minus-squareadam_y@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9arrow-down35·9 hours agoBold statement. Never seen this one before. You come up with this yourself? Also, you might want to check the wording. It should be “buying games” not “paying for” them. The reason being that you can rent games, which is not buying them but still falls under an agreed usage and doesn’t really justify piracy. Similarly you pay for a game at the arcade but that doesn’t mean you are justified in stealing it because you don’t own it. So, I’m going to give this meme 3/10.
