peoplegettingreallymadatcartoons:

when someone says “fiction isnt reality” they dont mean “fictional works have absolutely no impact on how those who consume it and how it can affect their views on certain groups of people or events” they literally just mean “hey im well aware that certain themes in fiction can affect events in real life but just cause someone is ok with certain themes in fiction doesnt mean theyre ok with them happening in real life, and we should probably take measures to make sure nobody interprets this as meaning its okay in real life”
