No you're not if it's infringing on someone's copyright and you would agree with me if you ever created something you were trying to sell to make a living.

copyright is an immoral government-enforced monopoly.

Immoral?

How do creatives make money if everyone is free to copy their work?

[–] [email protected] -2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

by selling it or taking commissions.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Ok, so you're either an idiot or a troll.

Goodbye
