Re: Is there anything that should never be depicted in fiction?

[(Anonymous)]

there is a huge difference between depicted and romanticised

I feel like everything is fair game, depiction-wise. gore, genocide, racism, taboo relationships, you name it. a lot of people will never experience such things directly for many reasons, but fiction is a somewhat safe way to expose them to the true depths of horror that humanity can inflict on itself. if we can't learn from history and we can't learn from fiction, we are doomed to repeat every single mistake ever made. plus, you don't know why authors write what they do all of the time. depressing and dark depictions of some things can be a catharsis, or a warning, or what have you.

but depicting it doesn't mean you have to romanticise or normalize it. if anything fiction is a great way to have your protags embody the things we should aspire to, and the villains embody evil, and let the narrative sort out which is which.

normalize

Are you geographically confused?

(Not trying to be mean, I just thought it was funny. :P)

both my accent and my spelling are a severe case of "depending on the time of day and mood"
