It must suck to be so close minded that you think folk can’t possibly ever want to think outside of the box.

By your reasoning neither Magnificent Seven nor Starwars should exist because they used references from outside of their creators’ culture.

Except they do.
And what’s even more fun is that once you know they were inspired by you can choose to look at those originals too. You get to widen your own horizon a bit as well.

Temu & co know damn well that they’re helping sell counterfeit products and breaking the laws as well as the intent of those laws. Telling people to ‘pay attention’ is admitting that you don’t care about anyone except yourself. You don’t realise that it is going to trip you up as well. Heck, it may have already cost you but you haven’t noticed it yet because some effects like toxic substances in the things you’ve bought can be subtle … (it may explain your silly conspiracy theories as well 😛 )

As such you shouldn’t be complaining about GW either, because if you had paid attention to their business model then you’d know what they are and what they are selling. Yet here you are whining about GW ‘ripping off’ things, when all they are doing is using their power to do what they want in this ‘free society’ of yours.
