    Uhh, I dunno man. These guys are assholes, but equating art theft to rape is a brain damage take.

      It isn’t, but not knowing how metaphors work might be.

      Then these artists reward them with giant melodrama filled rants about how awful and violated they feel. It’s like a free dopamine hit.

      These are the words of a rapist. Straightforwardly.

      What’s so great about discovery? It’s a violent, penetrative act that scars what it explores. What you call discovery, I call the rape of the natural world.

      That’s Jurassic Park my man - if you think Michael Chrichton has brain damage then you need to get your thumb out of your mouth you literal child. Calling support of AI ‘rapist’ speak is 100% accurate.
