If you can't win in the marketplace, and you retreat to the Government to force out your competition, you are not the victim. You deserve to lose.
Abolish intellectual "property" laws.

Yep!
This is dumb.
Your intellectual "property" laws are dumb.
I care about good creative work. I don't care who, or what, it comes from. If the AI produces a better product, I'm sticking with the AI.
Stifling innovation with draconian regulations does everybody a disservice.

Wait, do libertarians not support patents?
Okay, I’ll vote for y’all if you make insulin cheap

Why could you not IP your ideas? United States Patent and Trademark Office is one of the few government entities that does not take tax dollars. If anything, all government should try to emulate that.

This is where you're wrong, you're enabling theft, by the largest government backed corporation.

Then why are you guys suing state parties for infringement?
Have you thought of practicing what you preach?

The only way out is through: flood the market with free and unfettered use, and see what systems crop up naturally to compensate an credit artists.

You have to be pretty successful in the marketplace to afford to sue tech companies.

Never thought I’d see the day the LP went after George R R Martin for his inability to finish the books 😂

No doubt they're hanging out in the secret Discord chuckling about successfully they were able to troll the members with this post.
Meanwhile, they've spent about $30,000 to avoid the fact that Chadderdon can't win an honest election and he broke the bylaws to stay in the chair

Why? An idea, or words in a particular order, can be discovered just like locations can. Locations are non rivalrous, there are unlimited locations in the universe, ideas are non rivalrous, there are unlimited ideas. IP laws are perfectly in line with Rothbard and MES.

No. The nature of property is that we begin by owning ourselves and continue by owning what we produce until we trade it. That applies to ideas and expressions just as much as it does tangible objects. Think again.

Except for my IP rights. I hope to make buckets of money off them. But you can take everyone else’s

What about making money off your likeness? Using AI to generate fake movies or videos using your face w/o permission that make the creator money? Books? Music? This is one area I disagree with LP on. Competition using alternative IP can still occur.
