Is Intellectual Property bias against the poor? (a Marxist Perspective)

Is Intellectual Property really protecting creators — or just protecting the profits of the rich?

In this episode, we take a deep dive into Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) through a Marxist lens. From overpriced medicines to Big Tech patent trolling, and even the global fight over COVID-19 vaccines — we explore how IP often reinforces inequality rather than fostering innovation.

What you’ll learn in this video:
What Intellectual Property actually is (patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets)
How pharma and tech giants exploit IP for profit
Why IP creates global inequality through agreements like TRIPS
Examples of collective alternatives (open-source software, Human Genome Project)
Possible reforms and radical solutions to democratise knowledge

If you’ve ever wondered whether IP is a shield for innovation or a tool of exploitation, this breakdown is for you.
