all of this relies so heavily on drug trafficking as a like. valid concern. you’re manufacturing consent for the invasion of a country so you can steal their oil, the whole thing is under the guise of “stopping the drug trade” but like. i actually think it’s fine. legalize the drugs. this pretense goes away if we stop pretending drugs are some uniquely evil corrupting force and establish safe use sites. i will not be having a knee jerk reaction where i get all horrified at drugs entering the country thank you very much. legalize “hard” drugs. establish strong infrastructure for addiction care. decriminalize use and possession. vacate all past convictions.

liberal media is like “okay but what if the venezuelan govt WAS allowing drugs to be trafficked” okay and?

i'm begging you guys to start pirating shit from streaming platforms. there are so many websites where you can stream that shit for free, here's a quick HOW TO:

1) Search for: watch TITLE OF WORK free online

2) Scroll to the bottom of results. Click any of the "Complaint" links

3) You will be taken to a long list of links that were removed for copyright infringement. Use the 'find' function to search for the name of the show/movie you were originally searching for. You will get something like this (specifics removed because if you love an illegal streaming site you don't post its url on social media)

4) each of these links is to a website where you can stream shit for free. go to the individual websites and search for your show/movie. you might have to copy-paste a few before you find exactly what you're looking, but the whole process only takes a minute. the speed/quality is usually the same as on netflix/whatever, and they even have subtitles! (make sure to use an adblocker though, these sites are funded by annoying popups)

In conclusion, if you do this often enough you will start recognizing the most dependable websites, and you can just bookmark those instead. (note: this is completely separate from torrenting, which is also a beautiful thing but requires different software and a vpn)

you can also download the media in question (look for a "download" button built into the video window, or use a browser extension such as Video DownloadHelper.)

if the "Complaint" links are not visible for you:

  • Option 1: try the DuckDuckGo search engine instead (bonus: dedicated to privacy! doesn't track your data!)
  • Option 2: go directly to LumenDatabase.org (the website that collects the complaints--and therefore the removed links) and search for the title you want. look for results titled "DMCA (Copyright) Complaint to Google" featuring the media you're looking for. Proceed to Step 3 (above).

I was thinking about your post about the art-looker, and wanted to tell you that my Dad was kind of an art-looker villain. At some point in the 80s, he went to London to observe some specific paintings, and then discovered that the paintings were in the private residence of the Queen and normal people couldn't look at them. He was disgusted, and tried to sneak off the tour of Buckingham Palace in order to find the paintings. He spent some time wandering around before he was caught, and because he's Irish and it was the 80s, police were rapidly called because they thought he was scoping the place out to plant a bomb or something. After some intense interviews they decided he wasn't a terrorist but was indeed an idiot who wanted to see some Vermeers.
