Yes! This even applies if the character is not instantly called out on their poor behavior.

There are plenty of reasons a person may write or enjoy a fictional character without necessarily condoning or agreeing with their actions. A writer could be setting up the character to feel the weight of karma later on for their behavior, or it could be written in as a character flaw, the flaw in the cases of sexism and racism could be a case of the character being representative of the norms of the time or place that the work takes place in, or it could just be as simple as the character in question is a villain and is not supposed to be taken as a moral superiority in the first place! Sometimes people enjoy fictional characters and ships because of their dark nature, fiction is a good escape from reality after all. But a large majority of those people would never support the character or ship in reality. 

It’s simply not reflective of reality to assume someone supports a morally questionable ship or character because of the character/ships poor moral values.There are plenty of reasons one may like or write such a character to consider first- so please stop assuming!

I haven’t even played Awakening and Awakening’s baby handwave makes sense to me

The Jury’s still out on Fates’, this is all I got.

My apologies to Kaze, the unlucky first s-rank who’s status as such got him a spot in this…whatevers going on

I’ve never really bought into the whole ‘tone argument / fallacy / policing’ thing.

Certain situations call for particular tones that would be highly inappropriate in other situations, yes, but this doesn’t give you the authority to be a vicious psychopath.

The problem I see is that is how the tone argument gets pulled out: by a person being a condescending, venomous and cruel bastard and wanting a get-out-of-jail-free card for their behaviour.

There’s having your tone attacked in place of your argument and there’s your argument consisting of ridiculous personal attacks and being called on it.

The line is fine and, hell, you can say what you like. But do not be surprised when a bitter and condescending delivery of whatever you’re saying is rejected outright. 

On a website that seems to promote excising terrible people from your like it’s nothing and to surround yourself with saccharine fluff, I just find it bizarre that being a tosser to others is allowed when that card is pulled. 

This area has been purified

So is Zacharie a cat with a human mask, and the Judge a human?

I don’t care if the protag is gay or trans or whatever. The story has to be good. Gender and sexuality aren’t part of a character’s personality. I’m not going to suddenly read your book if the first word you describe your character is ‘lesbian’ or ‘agender’. Yeah representation is awesome and all but let the reader find out that the protag is gay by, I don’t know, reading the actual story. Stop having the protag throwing around that they’re gay every moment they talk like it’s their catchphrase. I rather have a hero that happens to be gay/trans/whatever than a person saying ‘I’m this’ like it gives them a free pass to stuff. It doesn’t. Stop that, that’s bad writing.

If you don't reblog this, you're heartless.
