    copying isn’t stealing, and modeling isn’t even copying.

    the greatest threat an artist faces isn’t that someone might copy their work, but that no one will want to

            … He’s not equipped? Your metaphor was nonsensical. Let’s say he did copy his exam answers. Who lost their answers as a result?

            Hence copying is not stealing.

            Additionally, who was harmed by the copying in your example, and how?

              being willfully ignorant of the harm being done to artists ability to pay their bills and you can’t comprehend how it’s theft.

              damn that’s dumb.

                Who is dumber? The one calling people dumb, or the one unable to answer their questions? Don’t use metaphors if you don’t understand them or can’t explain how they are valid.

                  you’re happy to steal from people, you just want to call it something else to obfuscate your guilt.

                  I see this all the time. it’s fucking dumb. you’re either lying to yourself and deluded, or trying to lie to me.

                  So to answer your query: you, you’re the dumb one.

                  Thanks for coming to my ted talk, gonna block you now because your inane messages aren’t worth the electrons used to transmit their content.

              yep, kindly point out where I’m doxing, trolling, sealioning, being racist or toxic. I don’t need to be friendly to someone being willfully ignorant, and none of this exchange has met those bars.

                  Sealioning is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential

                  but ok, if that’s your bar for toxicity, shrug. report away.
