the takeaway from the Zohran Trump meeting is that Trump is a gullible fool who will temporarily bend to the last charismatic person he talked to.
Zohran played him perfectly but that doesn’t mean Trump is good now. He’ll go back to fascism tomorrow morning after he talks to Stephen Miller

People really should not feel guilty if they download copies of media they have purchased.
And, for these purposes, if it wasn't a fixed-time rental, it's a purchase.

A class action lawsuit has been filed against Prime Video
The lawsuit accuses the service of ‘bait and switch’
They allegedly mislead consumers into believing they’ve purchased movies when they’re only getting a license to watch, which can be revoked at any time

I’m not fine with disinformation like “uh WELL ACTUALLY you would be protected by the doctrine of self defense.”
But some people are too invested in LOOK AT ME I’M A RADICAL to notice the difference.

If they are NOT IDENTIED as police officers, you are free to use deadly force to resist. You do not have to stop until the identify themselves. Breanna Taylor case in point.
That’s a tough question. Resisting masked armed thugs in any circumstance can get you beaten or killed by the armed thugs. If the masked armed thugs are agents of the U.S. government it will also get you prosecuted for “assault on a federal officer” or “resisting arrest.”
