“Show support” sounds like you only care about showing the game off to others on your steam profile. you can pirate and still buy merch if have the overwhelming need to not feel morally bad. the devs got paid, denuvo publishers don’t deserve anything.
Or, you can buy products. If you don’t like what they do, just don’t buy them.
I am not even defending Denuvo. I will not be buying this game. Pirating it also supports them, because if you talk about the game, show your friends, stream it, upload screenshots/videos, etc, you’re potentially getting others, who refuse to pirate, to buy the game.
If you don’t like what the company is doing, don’t play it.

You can show support without buying the game. Indie devs often have patreons or donation links these days
