    I hate how liberals will always compare their real world enemies to fictional enemies, but those they support are so blatant in their bullshit that it would be considered terrible writing in even the most half-assed liberal fiction.

      In children's cartoons, there's inevitably the line that even the comic villain won't cross. You'll have Skeletor punch three guys in a row and then step up to a baby, hesitate, turn to the camera and say "Well, I'm not a monster" and walk past.

      Then you've got IRL IDF who straight up do long-form prose explaining why they were fully justified in dropping artillery on a daycare.

      Fiction has to make sense. But reality gives storytelling the middle finger and it does whatever it wants.
