>Copyright laws should be removed
NO. Once again just because people abuse laws doesn't mean the solution is to remove said law.
>We should not have money
Stop trolling me
>The motive to write a book is to give people good ideas so society functions better
That's easy for you to say because you don't run a business or have other people depending on you for their livelihood.
Spend 10+ years building a product and see how you feel when it gets stolen.

> suppression of new ideas, technologies, medications, and innovations.
Yes but this is only temporary and I'm willing to make that concession.
You're right in theory but the problem is you don't account for human nature.
If you don't incentivize the behavior you want people wont do it.
Good ideas that can save lives will be held back because people will have no way to protect their ideas or profit from them.

> It leads to rapid innovations with no strings attached.
That depends on the industry. Certain industries require MASSIVE $$ in R&D.
They are able to recoup that cost by the temporary monopoly created by IP.
As a business owner there is no way in HELL I'm footing the research bill for a new product so so some wise guy can undercut me 3 days later.
Just because patent trolls/big pharma suck doesn't mean we should throw the baby out with the bathwater
Our standard of living is only possible by Chinese kids working like slaves with no social mobility.
While I don't think it's right, if they were paid a fair wage + benefits I could no longer maintain my standard of living.
So while I still don't morally agree with it, I tacitly accept this injustice as I cannot afford a $3,000 smartphone.
I rationalize this in my brain by not being wasteful or lazy so their efforts go to waste. but TBH I'm probly kidding myself.
Food for thought.
AI is ruining a whole crop of men for the plantation!

If you are talking about having views that were normal 150 years ago which would be called as you put it p*** adjacent today
Less than 150 years ago people could get married at 12 or 13 in multiple States in the United States
The Catechism of the Council of Trent set the age of marriage at 12 for girls
This was older than in the counterfeit Jewish religion that ashkenazi counterfeit Jews practice
