Fiction doesn’t override your actions or your morals.
Even if you read about someone doing something evil and it makes you go “hey that evil thing actually sounds good and fun and like a great idea to do in real life”–
–even if reading something makes you think that, if you do the thing, you are still responsible for your actions.
The author of the shit you read is not suddenly responsible for your dumb ass going “yeah evil sounds like a great time lmao.”
If we’re changing the icon all the time now, I’m gonna do it too.
It’s honestly downright hilarious to see the gap between what parents think they know about their children and the actual reality.
They generally don’t even notice that such a gap exists either.
This is especially obvious when the child is trans and the parent is all “This came out of nowhere. There was no precedent for it. They used to be so happy. They must have been suddenly brainwashed by the internet over the course of a week.”
