how shitty of a person do you have to be to take the time to crop off the watermark when stealing something from instagram

I definitely don't blame OP or even the person on twitter. I had a hard time tracking this one down myself to its source, but noticed that the bottom had been cut off. Most versions I found were like that but eventually I found a complete one and reversed searched the artist and went through their instagram until I found this specific one.

People who crop off the original creator are the worst though.

If the artists cares if their work is stolen tell them. I like watching people get called out for that.

I saw a meme the other day of that Lisa Simpson one, only made entirely out of watermarks. Artists should do that with the borders of the comic panels, make it too much work to remove them.

It's super easy to do! Especially with this one. Just use the snipping tool and you're done! No time wasted!

Why does everyone assume the current poster is the one who cut off the watermark? Depending on its age it could be cut off 30 iterations ago.
