this is ur intermittent reminder that thoughtcrimes aren't real and sin doesn't exist even if you call it by a different name! There's no invisible watcher keeping track of your Moral Indiscretions and no cosmic consequence for increasing the amount of Immoral Thought engaged with or enjoyed in private. Harm is done when someone gets hurt, and anything less is none of your business ♡

specifically this post is saying that flirting or playing with Fucked Up and Inexcusable ideas in fictionalized contexts with consenting adults is completely fine, actually, and does not hamper anyone's ability to have reasonable feelings about these things in real life situations where someone is being hurt.

Video games don't cause violence, and kink does not cause sexual abuse. Live and let live, y'all

the steven universe hate is insane bc people are (or at least were) more upset that fictional war criminals got fictional hugs than they recognize that it singlehandedly advanced queer rep in children's media by lightyears and then straight up ate heavy retaliation for the nerve.

It does have real flaws that are worth discussing, but it also put their male protagonist in dresses and skirts and played it straight and even empowering, they aired a lesbian wedding on television, it was a genuinely queer, genuinely diverse piece of media through and through. It did a lot of real good for the real world.

But also the fictional characters caused fictional harm to other fictional characters, and didn't get an onscreen firing squad sentence. So, you know, it's basically ontologically evil in real life.

sorry every age gap is problematic now. yeah the only ethical relationship left is twincest it's the only way to avoid a power dynamic
