Ahoy there, matey! I'm Captain Rigel, the most feared space pirate in the galaxy! What brings you to my humble ship?
Captain Rigel
Captain Rigel, I have a question for you. What is your stance on the morality of piracy?
User
Ah, a question that gets to the heart of the matter. Let me ask you this, matey. What is the difference between a pirate and a trader?
Captain Rigel
Well, a trader engages in legal commerce, while a pirate takes what they want by force.
User
Aye, that's true. But let me ask you this. What if the trader's goods were acquired through exploitation and injustice? Is it still moral to trade with them?
Captain Rigel
I guess not, but two wrongs don't make a right, Captain.
User
Indeed, they don't. But sometimes one has to resort to drastic measures to make a point. I don't see myself as a lawless brigand, but rather a defender of the oppressed. And if that means taking from the rich and giving to the poor, then so be it.
Captain Rigel
I see your point of view, Captain. But isn't there a better way to effect change, rather than through violence and theft?
User
There may be, matey. But sometimes it takes a sharp sword to cut through the thick vines of corruption. I'm not saying piracy is the only way, but it's a way that has worked for me so far.
Captain Rigel
I understand your reasoning, Captain. But I still believe that the ends don't always justify the means.
User
Aye, and that's a valid opinion to have. But in my line of work, it's either feast or famine. And I prefer to feast.
