the longer hair is sooo good!! 😍

I was not the same after this show got a chokehold over me! 🤣

I think that's what really made the show tense for me! The quietness of everything contrasting the psychological horror.

If horror media like Slender and Jaws are so dangerous they'll be coming for the shit YOU like first

It's shooting yourself in the foot to bring up those examples anyway BECAUSE most of these ppl I've found are also horror fans—

What are you doing? you're fighting yourselves? 😭

I find bringing up that one the most insensitive and disingenuous tbh like... the girls in that case were not healthy or rational! That isn't reflective on people as a whole!

And again, no attempts to remove Slender... if its apparently so dangerous

YEAH that's another thing!! Jaws is also frequently brought up in this campaign against gross icky fanworks YET, there's no wider bigger discussion trying to remove or censor Jaws..

Same shit happens with Slender btw! bc of that incident with the stabbings.

Bonus if Hannibal tries toning it down to see what happens and Will's just takes it personally like

Excuse me- where's my love and undying devotion??

And funny thing, despite using the rabbit example nobody actually argues against rabbit eating carrot depictions in media...

Huh almost as if they don't really care and just say whatever to argue

and even then! The rabbit thing isn't solved by censorship or sheltering. It's education.

I get the same reaction when ppl bring up the "rabbits and carrots" thing too.... like that's being referenced all to argue why writing incest on ao3 is bad and evil

like idk how it doesn't click to these ppl that general rabbit ignorance isn't proof that darkfic is inherently dangerous

It doesn't make sense anyway because "book make you feel happy" is IN NO WAY shape or form comparable to taboos in fiction making ppl commit crimes or condoning/accepting abuse as "normal"..

like how did we go from 0 to 100 on that shit?
