Stealing is good so it’s really just semantics isn’t it

I’d say it depends, really. Stealing is neutral on its own. There are cases where it’s bad and cases where it’s good. Piracy is just good on its own merits. There is no way in my mind that I can possibly frame it negatively.

Furthermore, bananas are good and so is peanut butter, but despite the fact that I often eat them together, they are not the same thing. And differentiating between them is hardly a petty semantic argument, though technically it is semantics.

There are reasons. As in, in some cases it hurts creators because they lose money. Though to what extent that happens really depends.

No one loses money as a result of piracy. Not gaining money from a specific person is not the same thing as losing money.
