Honestly all the copyleft licenses and others are garbage, hot take.

It’s a bandaid solution that people refuse to let go of, like a safety blanket. Absolute freedom of information is so surprisingly controversial of an opinion these days. It makes me fucking sick to so frequently see people behave in a way that feels literally brainwashed.

“nooooOooooooOooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUUUUUCK WE CANT ABOLISH COPYRIGHT THERE ARE STARVING CHILD ARTISTS IN AFRIIIIICCCCCAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaAAA”

Actually I’d be pretty flattered if someone liked art I made so much they decided to copy it or use it in their own way somehow. I’m not a psycho fucker who thinks state violence should be leveraged against someone for how they chose to copy my work. All copyright apologia I see is even worse hypocrisy than the literal fascist rhetoric you also see nowadays… and those fuckers are some of the biggest hypocrites! Anyway, not to be a crazy fucker myself and respond to my own rhetorical strawman lmfao.
