⚠️ When you blame fiction for murder, you are excusing murderers of their actions

⚠️ When you blame fiction for rape, you are excusing rapists of their actions.

⚠️ When you blame fiction for grooming, you are excusing groomers of their actions.

⚠️ When you blame fiction for child molestation, you are excusing child molesters of their actions.

You cannot say that consuming fiction causes people to commit abuse without absolving abusers of their guilt.

The only thing responsible for abuse is abusers.

not sure if this sounds weird to say, but people who say “underage fiction causes grooming and predatory behavior” follow the same logic of people who say “wearing revealing outfits causes rape”.

if you believe that fictional content causes such things to happen, then congratulations, you’re siding with offenders and taking the blame off their backs because “it was fiction that lead them to act”.

fiction does not cause predatory crimes.

predators cause predatory crimes.

similarly, showing off a lot of skin does not cause rape. rapists do.

predators will be held responsible for all that they do. authors and artists are not — and should not — be held responsible for other people’s crimes.

we are telling a story.

they are traumatizing a victim.
