Writing Does NOT Equal Endorsment!

[OtherSlater]

I feel like each time I delve into more sensitive topics in my stories, there will be SOMEBODY out there who thinks I like what I'm writing about because I don't outright say "Hey! this is bad!" I must love what's happening. Media literacy is only getting worse because people put their feelings of the author into account before judging the art. In Ultraviolence, the prologue is very gory. I chose this because I wanted high before the comedown. You see the ULTRAVIOLENCE the boom, you get a slice of life. It's a slow burn. But for some reason, some people think I like it?? Then again I don't get this problem here, which is why I came here. Other than the AI nastiness (And the PAY ARTISTS !! Post that had the AI bros who already disliked me look at my work in bad faith) It's calm here. This happened on RR. They cannot read anything that isn't a harem LitRPG, I swear.

I believe it's wrong to discriminate against people for having different ideas. Freedom of thought and expression exists for a reason. If someone enjoys the suffering of others, sadism, and evil, what's the problem?

Sometimes the blue curtains means the author has people trapped in their basement!

I’d also like to add that you can no longer lay down clues that only get revisited or revealed way later, and you can't start a plotline with the characters misinterpreting clues because of their lack of knowledge.

Everything must be explained at point-blank, no time for setups, no patience to let it play out and if the characters make a mistake that's because the author is stupid and not because the readers have more knowledge of events than the characters.

Average users can't read.

Wha about Hitler

Also to add context: I got a negative review on RR, which is fine, whatever, but in the 12 chapters they read they said:
I had a small penis and was raging at nothing (way to assume my gender! Also It's clear that Jackie is angry at the wider government for poor policing and lack of justice)
UV is just violent fantasy of mine (I don't think so, but whatever)
Said basically I would never confront or fight anyone (What?)
Had never thought of the ramifications of taking a life (I do. Quite explicitly in Chapter Six)
Said that the antagonists are one note (they only read 12 chapters, and the main baddie is mentioned the whole time and introduced in chapter 13. the henchmen are... henchmen. I didn't know I had to write backstory for cannon fodder. John Wick is an awful movie by their logic).

It's clear they just, didn't read my story. And disrespected me for some reason??

They kept talking about the lack of consequences for taking a life, maybe I'm SETTING IT UP! Like, it's a slow burn bro. It's frustrating to hear "the plot doesn't really start until Ch. 9" NO! I'm setting things up!!

Wha about Hitler

The Namibian president?

 

[OtherSlater]

What

Readers like that are so frustrating. Not being able to tell when something is very obviously portrayed as being bad, and assume the author supports it just because they included it in the story...like are we serious? I also agree with you on the AI stuff. Why enter creative writing spaces when you don't even respect artists? Writing is a form of art -_- Just like people replace artists with AI, their unoriginal LitRPG slop can be replaced by AI. Maybe I'm being too harsh...heh

This is about readers who cannot read thinking just because we included something like Order 66 in our stories mean we endorsed it.

I am 100% on the side of the Empire.

 

[Juia_Darkcrest]

LMAO...

Yep... because I have random gods, racism, people with values that conflict with modern society, slavery, and a bunch of other crap in my writing, I must believe in and support those things, right?

Such a dumb argument.

Seriously, if you have nobs who complain about that kind of stuff, feel free to try to convince them of your choice to write it that way, but in the end, it is better to ignore/block. Life sucks bad enough; you don't need some keyboard warrior trying to take the moral high ground with you for a creative writing piece.
