Part of my thread that's coming later this week will also discuss how being treated like shit/being disbelieved here (after getting swatted by a pathological liar who owns a huge Canadian instance, with a lot of ignorant supporters who seem unaware or don't care that their guy swatted me) - severely triggered my PTSD on being disbelieved when I tried reporting being SAed as a teen. I was bullied & ostracized for trying to report SA. People believed the rapist & not me. It brought up the same angry, disappointed & people are fucked feelings.
I had almost left Mastodon completely, due to that.

The Epstein Files triggered both of those hella horrible life memories, again. I'd never been swatted before Chad Ohman chose to send that racial violence to my home, shortly after my Dad died. That night was full of unnecessary police traumas too. I'm sick of people pretending to care & I find out they don't, when shit hits the fan.

I don't need fake support. I don't need cowardly folks. That shit ends up hurting me in the long run. I don't need any fucking devil's advocates either. Go hang out with Satan.

for plenty of people, Mastodon would also be down when the main mastodon.social goes down 🙂

Playing #DevilsAdvocate for a second: The use case you're thinking of isn't the real use case. Copyright law requires that creative get paid for their work. Most creative output way more content than they can realistically sell. To help them sell their art the (c) is transferrable. That's called "work for hire." If you're someone else and you're doing something else (maybe a magazine or a movie) you can pay the creative to give you both the work and the copyright so you can use their art in something else. Business types want to cut every cost they can, and judges respond to someone waving their hands, throwing sparkles, and saying things like "ai," and "its magic." Then they don't have to pay anyone anymore because the judge was distracted. 

I also always considered myself bit of a "Devil's Advocate"! 😈
