Don't know if you remember 90s internet all that clearly, but saving pictures (or viewing them) really wasn't the same back then.
If buying isn't owning then stealing isn't piracy.
just fyi, this isn't about an NFT but rather about an original, physical, drawing from 1993!
and, believe it or not, this image wasn't even drawn using a computer... the creator (called a cartoonist in those days) literally physically drew it by hand using ink on paper (which was the style at the time)

an opinion millions of people disagree with :)
could i ask your approximate age? and/or if you remember approximately what year you first saw this comic?
i would guess that someone who doesn't find this comic funny, not to mention historically important, must not be old enough to remember the time when most people hadn't been online yet.
if you're curious, read the two links in this post. i think they answer your question.
People have opinions, so they will pay more money for some things and less money for other things.
There are things that you think are valuable that other people think are stupid. Like your opinions on art, for example.
