    … He’s not equipped? Your metaphor was nonsensical. Let’s say he did copy his exam answers. Who lost their answers as a result?

    Hence copying is not stealing.

    Additionally, who was harmed by the copying in your example, and how?

      being willfully ignorant of the harm being done to artists ability to pay their bills and you can’t comprehend how it’s theft.

      damn that’s dumb.

        Who is dumber? The one calling people dumb, or the one unable to answer their questions? Don’t use metaphors if you don’t understand them.

          you’re happy to steal from people, you just want to call it something else to obfuscate your guilt.

          I see this all the time. it’s fucking dumb. you’re either lying to yourself and deluded, or trying to lie to me.

          So to answer your query: you, you’re the dumb one.
