My position has been clear from the start and I don't need to move anything in support of it.
In fact, obviously, I would say I've put up quite a reasonable argument why any site shouldn't be blocked on the say so of the media industry. I've given examples of where the media industry have simply lied to get what they want. I have also pointed out that the CEO of the MPAA has publicly admitted to bribing US politicians and threatening them, here's a link
I have also pointed out that contrary to most peoples belief it is actually not illegal to lend a CD or DVD to a friend, that did get a bit confusing a one point. I've also pointed out that again contrary to most people's beliefs that it's quite possible that the law is going to be changed so that people can make back up copies of their CD's and DVD's.
I've also pointed out that even though the media industry, that have been proven to lie to the courts and governments of the countries around the globe, insist that piracy is killing their industry boxoffice records are still being broken even though almost every country in the world is in or coming out of recession (some tool will inevitably post that some country or other isn't in recession)
In none of this have I ever needed to move the goal posts.

The goalpost relocation scenario was where you state that others have stated "filesharing = freetarding", when in fact they stated "filesharing of copyrighted material without permission of the copyright owners = freetarding".

Changing what people have said to what you think they meant to say, to support your proposition, is a little naughty.....
