What is that argument even? I've never heard that one before (sounds ridiculously twee, though).

Personally, and I say this as a person who is oppressed on multiple axes before any sjws we might have in the audience jump all over me, I think that writing about fictional oppression can, when done well, help people to understand, identify, and articulate injustice in the real world. It can get offensive, sure, if a person or work tries to carry the comparison too far or shoehorn into places where it doesn't fit, but any tool can be used badly. Just because I could use a hammer to nail up humiliating messages about someone all over their neighborhood doesn't mean a hammer is an inherently evil or oppressive tool.
