I hope kids outgrow their obsession with “moral purity” so they can embrace and enjoy fiction as adults without restrictions. Indulging in fantasy should be a fun, relaxing outlet instead of a source of stress, constantly worrying about your taste in characters and ships being a “reflection” of your morals when it isn’t.
Fictional characters aren’t real people, and no one is being harmed by what you do with them. Quit worrying about being “god-honoring,” and have fun your way.
I guess I’m old by internet standards, so allow me to offer the best piece of advice I was given about navigating online spaces as a wee child:
People are going to post things you don’t like, and there’s nothing you can do about it.
The world doesn’t revolve around you, and you can’t just magically make everything on the internet cater to your needs specifically. Block people, avoid sites, and never trust anyone you haven’t talked to personally.
Safe to say, it’s advice that I’ve kept with me a lot in the past 15 years I’ve been able to use computers.
The whole point of writing fascist characters as human beings is that real fascists are also human beings. If you think of fascists as somehow less than human you are falling into the trap of letting their mentality frame your worldview, thus legitimizing their course of action!
When you start looking at fascists as subhuman the debate becomes 'which group is actually subhuman and which is being unfairly maligned?' And personally I'm not fucking comfortable with that question being on the table ever.
#ADDITIONALLY #it makes recognizing fascist ideology in the people around you so much harder #bc if you know someone as a person #and a fascist isn't a person #then clearly this person can't be a fascist #or have fascist views #they're your colleague or your neighbor or your family member #they are way too human to be fascist
