but it's just fundamentally incorrect. "the point" of lawsuits like this is not to "destroy the perpetrators", it's to bring them to the bargaining table. the linked article is less than 600 words long but i can guarantee you almost nobody sharing it is reading it, because they wouldn't be able to make claims like this otherwise. here's a pretty important bit of text

wuh oh!!!! doesn't look like they're very destroyed here!!!!! you'll notice how these contracts are about compensating rightsholders, not artists. as will be the case for all of these trojan horse copyright victories you have the temporarily embarrassed vivziepops of the world rooting for.

copyright law is not your friend. copyright law will not save you or anyone else from the continued gutting of the creative sector. copyright law will make sure that the profits that come from this gutting will go to the same titans of industry that the profits from creative labor have already been going to. im begging everyone to stop falling for it over and over again.

But what if a single Israeli were killed? Headlines would ignite, condemnations would pour in, and the world would mourn the loss. Meanwhile, we are slaughtered daily, entire families are erased, our homes are mercilessly bombed, and the skies rain fire upon our children and mothers

We ask for nothing but the right to live, yet it is stolen from us with brutal force. Under this suffocating siege, soaring prices, and the blockade of crossings, we are in desperate need of your support

Stand with us in this time of hardship. Every contribution can save a life, and every voice can help the world hear our suffering. Do not leave us alone in the face of this injustice
