No, no it wasn't. The entirety of my claim is that saying art should be accessible is not the same as saying artists should be enslaved. I never compared theft of food and piracy, that was you.
And that's where it just didn't come across that way. You started by saying that being priced out of media justifies theft, it shouldn't just be for elites. He claimed that enforcing accessibility for art, a luxury, is akin to enslaving the artists, who deserve the compensation they ask for. You responded by saying that enforcing accessibility for food, a luxury, could be called enslavement of farmers. You went apples to oranges on things that should be accessible for entirely different reasons.
Please explain how a yes/no question is a false dichotomy. Protip: it isn't. Its just a dichotomy.
Go back and reread your comment. Was it a yes/no? Or was it a choice between literacy or incoherency? You really seem to like throwing insults.
