[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 8236805, member: 6802378"] Dark Sun is a distopy, but we should take care about some threads becoming taboo too fastly. Some episodes of Law&Order: Special Victims Units is about sexual slavery. Are we going to ban Law&Order? Machismo (male chauvinism) is wrong, but in woke fiction, even marvel and DC stories there are sexist characters to be reported, not to be promoted. Athas suffers a total ecological disaster, but the message is we have to avoid this in our real life. We can agree we should avoid frivolity about some serious threads, but if there is some complain, it should be first against the literary saga of the world of Gor (this is like mixing planet romance with 50 Gray Shades). There are slaves in the fiction about Conan the Barbarian. In Dragonlance not only Caramon became a slave, but also a gladiator in the arena.

For example a villain can be a no-Caucasian human, but then others from that ethnic group should be in the side of the good guys. A religious zealot or a preacher/false prophet can be an antagonist, but then also other believer characters have to be showed to mark faith doesn't the end nor the reason neither the mercy. [/QUOTE]
