The original idea of Patreon(age) was that people donated (possibly on an ongoing bases) an amount of money to a person as a gift to help them create their work(s), the receiving person could choose to reward that kindness with some token like (early) access to the work(s).
At some point some of the donating people started to assume that they had more rights to the work(s) than they actually do.
eg. They wrongly assume they have the right to do what they like with (a copy of) the work(s).
