I don't want to make it all about religion, but I feel like there's a connection between the "faith alone" doctrine of many (esp. evangelical) Protestant groups, where it doesn't matter what you _do_ but only what you _believe_, and this sort of "My heart and mind matter, but not my actions!"
John ScalziMy dude, we don't need to know your "heart and mind," we just have to look at your prior actions. You've already turned CBS News into a ham-handed partisan laughingstock in land speed-record time, so we have an excellent idea what you will do with CNN.
While true of Bluesky...also true of everywhere and everywhen.

This is an important point to keep in mind. While the contours vary and a lot of people have wrong ideas, the basic notion of fair use is not legal, but normalized. "Hey, listen to this couple of lines of the song, the lyrics are awful" is fair use.
The Questionable AuthorityThe thing about most fair uses is that mostly you never need to litigate them, often because they're kinda recognized as areas that are outside what copyright is there to do.
