If someone do not believe in using copyright law and dislike those who do, they should act accordingly and not deal with proprietary companies at all.

Sure. But that still doesn't resolve my dilemma, it just narrows it down.

Is it legitimate to take code published under a liberal license by someone who doesn't deal with proprietary companies at all and use it in a GPL project, knowing that it prevents the original project from using that derived code?
