![A quote from the former Twitter.
@FriendOfAstraea:
Statements about "all men" being inclined towards horrible thing is [sic] only unpopular when a feminist (supposedly) says it as a bad thing, but when some men themselves say it to defend that behavior as "inevitable," suddenly it's just reality we're all too snowflakey to accept.

Go my Bothriolepis... This year's fish pecan pie! Bothriolepis was a peculiar-looking placoderm from the Devonian period or the Paleozoic. It had two long pointed pectoral fins and silly little eyes on top of its head.

I have thoughts about people with good hearts and good intentions. They are illustrated in Inheritors of Power.
They are all very well, but we still need an objective standard of harm.

So, someone taking your art and selling it isn't theft and it doesn't prevent you from profiting off your own work, it introduces competition. Copyright is the promise to protect your monopoly and prevent competition, something that benefits corporations more than you by, a lot.
