NAYRT

The context of this argument is that someone said that watching torture porn is fun and enjoyable because it looks obviously unrealistic.

"Because it's so incredibly unrealistic. Blood doesn't look like that. Innards don't look like that. Bodies don't work that way, at all. It's as deeply absurd as the buckets of blood in the original Evil Dead movie, just given a high SFX gloss. The entire genre is so incredibly over the top that if it doesn't straight gross you out, there's a good chance of it coming down on the side of hilarious. Because what the fuck, human beings actually wrote and filmed this shit and never once stopped and went "wait, is this remotely physically possible?""

That post isn't saying "it's fun because I know rationally that it's not real", it's saying "it's fun because it appears to be unrealistic". Something can still appear to be realistic even with the knowledge that it's not real. The post that started this thread is making a really fundamentally different point than the one you're making here.
