Fiction is stupid.

>Hurr durr what if there was a magical world where my worldview was objectively right and everyone that disagrees with me is evil, stupid and dies or is humiliated

How am I supposed to take this seriously? It's all just propaganda.

Maybe start by learning how to form your own opinions, instead of taking everything at face value?

you are correct, and you know what's funny? you can turn their own logic on its head and/or make a story with your own viewpoints at play using their own fictional world just to fuck with them

>fiction where men and women are "equal"
this opens up so many can of worms that it would be so fun and easy to fuck with cause these people never take their beliefs to their logical extremes, if men and women are equal then why are the men working to maintain the women and not the other way around? etc etc, yes i went for the pol talking point cause i am obsessed, but this can be applied to any other point an author is trying to make with his carefully controlled environment

>How am I supposed to take this seriously?
Fiction at least understands that it is so, unlike Law, Psychology, Theory, Philosophy, and even Science, which disguises its fictitious 'nature' with the descriptor 'provisional' --What is it in the end but Fiction applied?
But it works!
What it gives with one hand it takes away with the other.
And fiction works, too -- in the form of Laws, Money, Customs, Letters and Numbers, etc.
>It's all just propoganda
In a world saturated with advertisements and a few dominant (very stupid) ideologies it's odd that you would make this claim so absolutely; as a discipline fiction worthy of the name endeavors *not* to be propoganda. Does it fail? Yes, more times than not. But not always. If nothing else Fiction is the best means of understanding what propoganda looks like in the pragmatic sphere of actually living. Good fiction, i.e.

and also I think you need to really think about who dies gets humilaited, gets called evil ect.

I think that putting forward notions such as good and evil ultimately leads to worst kind of anti life suicidal ideaology possible.

Or perhaps the anti harmony in 4 helps reground the 3 and keep the 2 together so in this beautiful creation is preserved.

That doesn't signify any greater meaning. South Park unironically put it best in their Imagination Land episode - Works of fiction are more real than you or I because they'll live on in future generations.

You are fake. Star Wars is real.

Not that guy, but fiction can be (and often is) propaganda. Camus thought the extremes of fiction were frivolity and propaganda, and I don't think it's a bad spectrum to use.

This is not to say, of course, that non-fiction is any different. OP lacks awareness, there.
