Better fictional than real. Fuck sake, every time a professional psychiatrist or other professional in the field of studying behaviour. Speaks on the topic the same God damn point is made over and over and over.

Fictional characters reduce real harm. Give the freaks a safe space and moderate it properly and you are literally helping reduce actual harm.

Prohibition NEVER works. How many god damn times will people try to ban something only to find they have made the problem worse before they realize it doesn't work.

The hard part is the moderation cause no one wants to be in charge of it and you can't let people self moderate addictions and mental issues.

yes. however, recommending they seek help (although maybe in a less forcefull manner than the commenter) is not bad, as seeking psychological help also reduces real harm. If you struggle with something like this, and you live somewhere where it is possible, seeking psychological help is the best course of action.
