Short rant, sorry.

Returntobuddhalol March 25, 2025 10:54 pm

I really dislike people who argue and write things off just saying it's "fiction". Fiction inspires reality and reality inspires fiction. I just think it's such a stupid excuse for readers who support insane stories depicting some not so good things, may it be constant rape and abuse, diregarding religion, etc or anything tbh. It's such a weak excuse, just say "hey well, this what we want to read. This is some peoples interest." And I'd be fine with that excuse becuase yes, people are allowed to have their own picks.

But sayings it's fine just because it's fiction is so ridiculous and ignorant. No matter how "fiction" a story is, the phenomena depicted, or what it is based on, remains as real as it is.

    every type of fiction, no matter how disturbing, has the right to exist. rule 34 of the internet. we all find some things uncomfortable, best thing to do is click away. let's all be mature enough to click away ... αnα

    So, abuse and rape manga/webtoons has the right to exist? Wow..... seriously? I'm disgusted that you would say that

    I'm not talking about supporters and stuff. I'm talking about IGNORANCE. and trying to justify evil deeds just beucase it's fiction. Please, don't misunderstand Returntobuddhalol

    Right, but no one is actually saying, “the character deserved it” or “the abuser was right.” When people say “it’s just fiction,” they’re not justifying what happened in the story—they’re saying they’re allowed to engage with dark themes without being treated like they support them in real life.

    Actually, the main drive behind this post was a tiktok I saw regarding ennead a few days ago, and today I saw a comment talk about the same thing. Both the tiktok and the op comment were talking about how it's quite disrespectful to depict actual gods in such ways, and also the insane amount of SA almost unnecessarily in ennead. And somehow some managoers were like "its just fiction" and then goijg on about how they wouldnt mind if it were jesus either, just being really childishand stubborn when op was just talkijg about how odd the premise of the sotry is.. which IS ignorant, im sure you agree. That's all what I was touching on.

    I get what you’re saying, and yeah—when people respond with “it’s just fiction” and mock religious concerns, it can come off as dismissive. But that doesn’t mean everyone who says it is ignorant. A lot of people say it because they feel morally judged, not just disagreed with. When it feels like their character is being questioned, defensiveness kicks in. It’s not that they don’t understand the discomfort—it’s just hard to engage openly when they feel attacked

    Ofcourse, I click away when I don't like something, when a story is bad or when rape is being used as a writing tool. Whatever, rape is just an example I'm using here. Tbh, you missed the point, no matter the c... Returntobuddhalol

    i didn't miss the point because you don't have a point. "rape is bad"... yes everyone with a functional brain knows it's bad. but stories use bad things all the time. murder, kidnapping, abuse... even if it's portrayed positively in fiction, WE (irl) know it's not a good thing to kill, hurt, etc. if some people don't have the mental capacity to understand that and actually want to do those things after reading about them, they should just read happy go lucky stories for the rest of their lives. fiction is not responsible for anyone's actions. it's like saying video games make people violent or gay films make people gay. that's not how it works. people who say 'it's fine because it's fiction'... they're right, it's fine because it's fiction e.g. self harm. if it's irl, we give people support. fiction is just words and drawings, we can't save or help fictional characters because they aren't real. we can use our own brains and figure out if what they're doing or what's happening to them is bad.

    don't you know religions are full of abuse, rape, kidnapping, etc stories? and people believe them to be true. religions are most dangerous and misleading than dark fiction.

    uh yeah? everything. we as human beings have brains in our heads to help us understand if things are bad or not. your pfp is literally a suicidal woman, did reading about her being suicidal make you suicidal? if so, stay away from fiction, your brain is still malleable.

    they're all things you should NEVER want to experience in real life. nobody should want to be raped, abused or to die IRL. nobody should want to do those things IRL either.
    reading about them is just an escape for people.

    Well ofcourse, but refrain from comparing somethihg like suicide which is a tragedy, to crimes like rape and abuse, which are also tragedies but well, ykwim. No one will be jailed for commitijg or attempting, obviously. So it's normal you see? Psychological factors enabling such thoughts within one individual. But at the same time, rape and abuse are just.. ha, idk how to even explain it anymore. But well, if you're saying reading about rape and abuse and seeing the characters mirabke somehow is an escape for you, then idk what to say. Enough already

    I generally don’t understand how it’s an escape for people to constantly read about someone getting brutally, raped, and tortured. It’s fucking weird and shouldn’t be normalized in media. “ it’s just fiction” is such a fucking stupid excuse. Answer me this do you think it’s just fiction if people enjoy lolican or sexual depiction of children?? NO just because it’s fiction doesn’t mean it’s not wrong

    I’m tired of you guys comparing suicide and murder to rape or even pedophilia because there’s a clear moral gap. I have no problem if rape is being depicted in way that is doesn’t romanticized and actually talks the harm it causes someone but I don’t think books that romanticize abuse and someone ending up with their abuser should exists. If you’re constantly reading about someone getting brutally raped, you need help.
