I am very strongly against all kind of copyright
and there is a simple solution if you don't want your work being pirated do not bother producing them it is not like we will lose anything.

I am not going to pay for any work in principle ever so there is no difference if paid works exist or not. I only care about their existence as much as the chance of them getting pirated.

Artist can decide if he wants to release his work or not but once he gives it to someone he loses control over his product and person who got it get full right to release it as its own if original artist is not willing to do so. in that case pirate will get all fame and admiration from all public which got to enjoy this stuff. Furthermore, if you are sharing paid work you do not even need to give credit to the author.

An argument that authors will not create stuff if they will not get paid is totally idiotic because we already have more content than we can consume in multiple lives. If some author decides to go on strike this is not a big deal because now that niche gets open to someone else who will happily fill it.

Nowadays with all that absurd amount of content, we already have it only makes sense to focus on some very niche areas but those areas will not give you enough of an audience to make any decent money even if you manage to avoid piracy.

taking works of other people without crediting them is also not that bad as it may look like because if someone is sharing your work he is advertising you and it is just matter of time when the true author will be revealed and you will collect all his fanbase for yourself.

If your work gets modified by other people this is the highest sign of approval you can ever get.
