hypocrisy - people shouting they're transparent and hiding relevant info fronting - people pretending they care or are thoughtful or are some other high status thing when they don't/aren't non-attribution - people selectively forgetting where they get their inspiration because they think it makes them high status to be the origin (the worst part is imo is that it's not even self-serving ... for anyone that sees through it, which they do eventually if the work is important, it lowers status) scams - people putting any effort into the above, broadly characterized as duping people, and starving themselves of real work/creativity
