I’m gonna say it.

It’s unhinged to assume that someone’s taste in fiction equates to what they believe is moral or good, or is something they want to see or experience in real life.

That is a bonkers assumption to make.

I’m tired of humoring people with long arguments about it when the simple fact is it is a totally fucking absurd reach to accuse someone who enjoys something in fiction of being in favor of it in real life.

I’m tired of pretending like this is a legitimate position to hold– that they should be afraid of fiction’s dire influence on a reader’s moral decay or that it’s a sign of what the author secretly wants for realsies in real life.

#important#nah but fr tho it gets tiring#i know a sweet person who’s super into eroguro stuff#does that mean they’re an evil sicko who wants to murder rl people in creative ways for their own satisfaction?#no#they just like eroguro#that’s it#i’m once again asking for people to have critical thought and build reading skills beyond that of a second grader
