Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Try https://everythingmoe.com/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

Did you think my response was meant to litigate this question to begin with? Because it was meant to examine the conditions that lead to an effective decap so that we could form a better understanding rather than to focus on pat solutions like "they work" and "they don't work ⸻ terminating thoughts that give us zero insight.
So what you're saying here is that we are both saying that decapitation strikes are a thing that works, the argument you wished was simply one of when they work.
Well I would point out that other people saw our discussion and took from it that "It does not work" was a valid conclusion from it, so the onus is not entirely on me. But yeah, sure, it is worth bearing in mind that decapitation strikes are much more likely to work when you have some sort of succession with legitimacy that is amenable to your goals. It is unlikely to do you much good if #2 hates you as much as #1 and wishes to follow the same plan.
Disengage
Actually fuck off. The moment I try to engage with what you claim you actually wish to discuss you take it as hostility.
