Welcome to the internet, I hope you have a good time here. Nobody is obligated to understand others' situations, especially with no prior interaction with you, and you don't get to gatekeep content you post openly online or control how it's shared.

If you're being banned by mods who don't take the time to check timestamps to verify you're posting OC, that sucks, but who cares if you're banned from an instance or platform that's moderated by someone who's "too blind in the brain to see the truth."? Is the fact that your meme is being shared by others and enjoyed not enough of a dopamine hit? Do you really need to be able to spread them yourself through platforms/instances that are moderated so poorly? If you're that concerned about it, you can always add some sort of watermark. That's an easy way to link it back to you. There's no point in trying to police the actions of strangers on the internet, you stand no chance.
