I need to add to this that blocking is not the answer. Actively down vote if your instance allows. The practices discussed here passively harm artists.

Given how they lean into it and how they act in this thread and others calling him out, they’re doing it on purpose. To piss people off. As in they are a full on troll and need to be banished back under their bridge, across all instances that give a shit.
That’s why I made this shitty comic. People need to not block, but heavily down vote this behavior. I will die on this hill. I’m not going to look, but it is at least hundreds of posts that this fuck makes with the intent of hurting artists.
The whole “don’t feed the troll” thing needs to be inversely applied here. Downvote all of it. Period. For every post that this idiot troll makes, there is at least 1 person that doesn’t see or care what’s going on and they’ll download the image without attribution, share it, and the problem continues.
Negative attention is still attention. You need to deprive the troll of what they want. What they want is attention. Deprive them of it by ignoring them entirely.
I get it. But until the mod maybe wakes up, the best we can do is push bad content down.
