This, along with "I support emulation, but piracy of currently available games is NEVER acceptable" are just some of the baffling finger-wagging takes I've seen about the Yuzu case on places that are not Hexbear. I don't mean people who are simply stating facts about the current landscape of copyright law and how it shakes out for ROMs and emulation, but the ones who actually take personal offense at piracy.
I just don't understand where these earnest copyright respecters are coming from. If someone told you they've pirated all the Marios, from the out-of-print ones to the one with the elephants, or the hottest current streaming show, a normal human being's response to it should be a shrug of the shoulders. It doesn't fucking matter
Then some of these clowns go on to blame pirates for the current rounds of video game industry layoffs 
You're at the topic intersection of GAMERS, Nintendo Adults, and white boot-licking westerners.
It's gonna be a bad time.
Don't take these people seriously, they will never learn, they will never critically think about any of this, and at best they will just vomit their ill-reasoned opinions into the void.
Try to cause yourself as little psychic damage as you can from this, because unfortunately it's an interest of mine as well and there's a flood of stupidity surrounding this entire thing.
If you see a good agitation angle for anyone open to it, mentioning how silly US copyright laws have progressed over the years is possibly an in-road towards furthering "capitalism will inevitably drive everything off a cliff in favor of infinite profit-growth seeking behavior" if you want to plant seeds. Tying in implications about right-to-repair movements being potentially harmed by future emulation-related rulings is also possibly an in-road that's less abstract than "you can't steal the magic number to make the game load" when it's demonstrated more concretely as "you can't service your tractor unless you pass the hardware genuine replacement ID software check on your John Deere tractor. Also only John Deere sells the parts, they're the only ones selling the repair service, and the markup on parts is eye-opening compared to the past." Maybe, just maybe, people will start to get why these court cases could be really important to their interests if they have any imagination about the implications of only the manufacturer being allowed to use the fancy magic number (and start questioning the systems that think this is a rational and good legal concept). It should be relatively easy to agitate non Burgerland people by talking about how Burgerland's terrible justice system just took away some of their treats. This is less helpful but anything to soften support for Burgerland (no matter how serious the reasoning behind it is) is exclusively a good thing.
That's probably the only possibly positive from discourse with these people.
