I’d say yes, but, you don’t have a right to appropriate someone else’s art as your own.
By all means, copy and distribute. Even modify and make derivatives. But no plagiarism, please. Don’t take something that someone else made and then claim to have made it yourself without giving them due credit.
Art belongs to its audience.
People have a right to culture.

I agree, but if my only choices are “copy-right law as it is” vs “abolish all forms of copyright law, including plagiarism”, I’d go with the later.
(I am only talking about “law” here. People and orgs should still boycott and denounce plagiarism.)
