"You Can Portray Bad Things In Fiction If It's Done In A Negative Light!"

"You can portray bad things in fiction if it's done in a negative light!"

maybe this is just me, but the author shouldn't have to hold your hand & tell you explicitly that what's happening in the story is bad.

Sometimes, the narration of the story portrays it as good, or "romanticizes" it because the character narrating is a terrible person. That doesn't mean the author condones it, it means the *character* thinks it's okay!

You should have enough critical thinking skills & media literacy to reach that conclusion on your own, and if you don't, I recommend Disney Junior for your viewing pleasure, rather than adult content.

Don't worry, they'll tell you exactly the lesson they want you to learn over there, in painfully explicit detail.

That might be more your speed.
