  • Being opposed to the concept of laws doesn’t mean you need to break them

    True, but being opposed to the concept of laws means that you’re more inclined to break laws to achieve your aims than to work within the law.

    Chaotic in this context means that you consider the very concept of law an impediment to justice whereas “do good things regardless of whether they’re lawful or illegal” kind of behavior you’re ascribing to chaotic good is the textbook definition of NEUTRAL good.

    Besides, I’m not sure “opposed to the concept of laws” is really true for all but the most extreme examples of CG

    There’s vast differences of scale, sure, but lawful - neutral - chaotic is about your relationship with laws as a concept that governs the actions of people for better or worse.

    It seems like its more about wanting freedom than just hating laws themselves.

    Nah, freedom and law aren’t inherently in opposition to each other.

    Sure, some laws restrict your freedom to do certain things that lawmakers want to discourage for one reason or the other, but some other laws are there to PROTECT your freedom to do other things deemed desirable or value neutral.

    Just like some laws existing to protect consumers from being exploited by corporations and others existing to protect corporations from the consumers they exploit doesn’t make “law” and “exploitation” synonyms or antonyms.

    Eh, she’s one of the few in her genre that actually writes their own music

    Sure, but a shitload of people who write GOOD music themselves toil in obscurity and poverty since they don’t have her marketing savvy and looks.

    She’s earned the money

    Not really, no. Failing upwards by successfully marketing boring slop is an example of “stealing a living” no matter how hard you work.

    Being mad because that money happens to be an insane amount is childish.

    Yes, it’s very childish to consider resource hoarding on a society-affecting level in one of the most economically unequal countries in the world selfish, abusive, or even just unsympathetic 🙄

    Even if you DO somehow come by riches that vast honestly by providing a superior product or service without abusing anyone, the hoarding of that much is inherently abusive.
