This is a great example of how capitalism creates incentives that divide people and cloud basic empathy and care for your fellow humans. I could be dying of thirst and some barista at a boba shop would deny me water if I couldnโt pay 0.35 cents

@lmaofloor What I mean here is that depiction itself is not enough to evaluate if a work is harmful. A story containing a woman being raped can be a hot fantasy or insultingly sexist depending on the content and frameworks being implied. We need to be more nuanced in what we label as harm
@lmaofloor Reality. Thatโs the appeal, that itโs not real and is not subject to our usual ethical queries. Sometimes, the grotesque is fascinating. And sometimes we use the iconography of something that would be grotesque in real life to explore lighter (or darker) themes. Thatโs fine

@lmaofloor Iโm also aware that there are social dynamics that are driving people to moral grandstand. Im not equipped to talk on that. Iโm sure those who have experienced it can also say a bit about how groups use self-policing to create belonging and validation. Hereโs a good one I like
as someone who has had plenty of arguments with antis, has been friends with antis, and been an anti myself it actually barely has anything to do with a genuine belief darkship aka taboo fictional media causes real world harm
