Meme doesn't make sense in this context, but do love me some GOG.

To me, the meme acknowledges that GOG installers are shared in groups, which is piracy since the other people didn't pay for it. (That doesn't mean it's bad btw.)

Wtf is your problem copy and pasting your comment everywhere? No one keeps asking for your opinion on each comment.

And even if they did, his take doesn't even make sense 🤦

Might be a federation glitch

Seen it happen before where someone replies the same comment to a bunch of seemingly unrelated parent comments

Or man is tweaking, who knows

Isn’t it great how twenty six people in a community about privacy downvoted your reasonable comment. Can’t wait or them to downvote this one too. We’re not in this group to jeer piracy and villainize it.

We’re here to celebrate it!

They're disagreeing with his interpretation of the meme. It's really not a big deal!

The down arrow here is nakedly a "I disagree" button, you really don't have to take it as an indictment.

Have you seen LessWrong.com ‘s voting? They have, essentially, “good/bad comment” & “I agree/disagree” buttons.

Totally. Thanks.

I’m not exactly acclimatized to the new environment.
