I'm so sick of incest fetishisation, and while Game of Thrones contributed to it, I don't think it started there. While I agree there are more important things Parliament could be focused on, I think it is important for victims of incest to not have it fetishised and thrown in their faces. If it stayed a niche it wouldn't have gotten attention, but it's everywhere these days and it's not okay.
Givers have to know when to say "enough" because takers never do, and never will. The people pushing incest porn are takers. They're enjoying and profiting off the trauma of survivors. And they've been taking more and more each passing year. I'm 100% okay with the government telling them to let the survivors up, they've had enough.
"I'm stuck step-bro" isn't incest. They aren't related by blood at all. That's one of the reasons it's a popular backstory.
Tell us you're a brainwashed ignorant cunt who's obsession with other's bedrooms is unhealthy without telling us you're a brainwashed ignorant cunt who's obsession with other's bedrooms is unhealthy.
...Tell us you don't mind re-traumatising survivors because you have a weird fetish without... or maybe people are more complicated than one opinion? Either way, I stand by compassion, and if that makes me a cunt, so be it. I'd rather be hated by people who like to hurt others than revered by the same. You're telling us as much about yourself as you say I'm telling you about me.
Just because this table is a Lazy Susan and I'm sitting on top doesn't give you right to change my point of view. I can't point at myself, hippo. Wah, wah, wah..etc. Etc.
Game of Thrones didn't contribute shit. It was a thing back in the VHS days.

GoT invented it. There's no such thing as Edipus or Electra. And definitely nothing in the years between. /s obv
