A copyright holder who is so fanatic against fair-use that they have gone beyond copyright nazi when striking users for so much as mentioning their intellectual property.
Named after the Necrons from Warhammer.
A Copyright Nazi will strike your Youtube for showing a clip of their show in one of your videos.
A Copyright Necron will strike your Twitter for posting a meme, GIF, or having a profile picture of their intellectual property.
Copyright Necrons are more cold blooded than (C) Nazis & really don't care who they take down in their purges.
Copyright Nazis are asshole narcissists, but at least are pragmatic enough to realize they need a fanbase to keep their income. They'll allow fans to cosplay or make fanart of their characters.
This form of IP fanaticism goes beyond Copyright Nazism because the original Nazism had some form of populism & mob mentality backing it. But Copyright Necrons are ghouls who really don't care who they piss off.
Warhammer Necrons roam the galaxy to purge all living things, believing if they extract enough biomass they will become flesh again.

RoseScape got striked by Shueisha for posting a Dragonball GIF! They're not mere copyright Nazis like Toei, they've become copyright necrons!
Sorry bro but even a massive boycott won't work. Shueisha doesn't value it's public image at all, they're copyright necrons who would burn down their corporation to purge the internet of their copyrighted material.
Those copyright necrons suspended my Twitter account just for cosplaying as a character they own!

May 22 Word of the Day
A moment that is generally agreed to have had a significant influence on pop culture and everyday life. While the term was coined by Rose McGowan in context of the #MeToo movement, and is mostly associated with the K-pop community, the phenomenon is universal and a basic component of how culture works.
Real world events such as social/political movements, the election of a new U.S. President, major catastrophes and disasters, as well as entertainment such as movies, music and TV, can all function as cultural resets. Notable cultural resets in relatively recent memory include:
* The Beatles appearing on the Ed Sullivan show in 1964
* The Watergate scandal of 1974
* The release of Nevermind by Nirvana in 1991
* The September 11, 2001 attacks
* The election and inauguration of Barack Obama in 2009
* The COVID-19 pandemic

"The Nineties politically started with the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989 and the Soviet Union dissolving on December 26, 1991, and ended with both the 2000 Presidential election which saw the victory of George W. Bush and the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 which left people so stupefied that it functioned as something of a cultural reset button." - TV Tropes' article on the 1990s
