MODERATORS
Why am I not entitled to profit from my own work building on stories I enjoy?
What entitles someone to take another person's work and profit off it?
No.
The subject is intellectual property, in general.
Why am I not entitled to share culture?
Why am I not entitled to create, if similarity exists?
Why does someone get to own an idea, just because they wrote it down first?
Is the world's copyright system flawed? Yes. Should it be completely removed? No, because otherwise a lot of creative branches would be unsustainable. Artists need money, musicians need money etc.
I'm not against copyright. I'm trying to guide this other use through why their post is a nonsensical response to someone who is.
