    Yeah, it’s funny how leftists care about societal problems until it fucks with their wallets.

    I guess that’s one thing the left and right can always unite on: greed.

      Capitalists. You’re talking about capitalists. Democrats are still capitalists, therefore they are not “leftist.” You cannot be a capitalist and a leftist.

      Leftists have been decrying the cost barrier to high quality information preventing people from easily accessing it for ages. SciHub is founded by and run mostly by leftists for example, and leftists tend to be very pro-piracy in general.
